Summit Physicians Recognized As 2014 ‘Top Docs’

Summit Orthopedics is proud of our ‘Top Docs’ recognized by their Twin Cities peers.

Every year, Mpls/St. Paul Magazine surveys about 5,000 randomly selected licensed doctors and nurses in the Twin Cities, and asks them to nominate two physicians in each of 71 specialties. This year, 700 doctors in 42 specialties made the list.

Summit Orthopedics is proud that five of our dedicated physicians were chosen by their Twin Cities colleagues for inclusion in this year’s list. The majority of these physicians have been recognized by their peers for multiple years. Each of them embodies our commitment to bring comprehensive orthopedic care to our Twin Cities community.

Dr. James Gannon

Dr. Gannon’s specialties include knee, shoulder, sports medicine, joint preservation and restoration, and arthroscopy. He has practiced in St. Paul for 20 years, caring for three generations of some of the families who see him as their primary care physician for the muscular skeletal system.

Dr. Jack Drogt

Dr. Drogt’s specialties include knee, hip, joint preservation and restoration, arthroscopy, and knee and hip arthritis. His expertise lies in knee and hip reconstruction. Dr. Drogt engages with each patient’s goals. and works with them to address their expectations and help them meet their individual goals.

Dr. Peter Daly

Dr. Daly’s specialties include knee, shoulder, hip, sports medicine, and joint preservation and restoration. Because shoulder arthritis has prompted him to adjust his own activities, he brings personal perspective as well as medical expertise to his patients who are dealing with the same kinds of issues.

Dr. Kristoffer Breien

Dr. Breien’s specialties are hip, knee, sports medicine, joint preservation and restoration, complex revision knee and hip replacement, arthroscopic procedures, and fracture care. He focuses mainly on lower extremity injuries and issues, and loves to engage patients, answer their questions, and help them get back to the activities they love.

Dr. Amy Beacom

Dr. Beacom’s specialties include sports medicine, shoulder, ankle and foot, knee, running, and swimming. Her dedication to running and swimming orthopedic injuries is reflected in her service as a team physician for United States swimming.
