Dr. Rogerson has practiced orthopaedic medicine in Madison, Wisconsin for more than 24 years. A fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Dr. Rogerson specializes in care of the shoulder, hip and knee with expertise in arthroscopic surgery, sports medicine, reconstructive surgery and joint replacement.

Dr. Rogerson has been an innovator in the area of arthroscopic surgery of the shoulder and has introduced several new techniques to the national Shoulder Arthroscopy Study Group.

In addition to authoring several chapters in medical textbooks on arthroscopic surgical technique, Dr. Rogerson has given many presentations to national physician groups and has been particularly active in the Arthroscopy Association of North America. He enjoys teaching other surgeons about arthroscopic surgical techniques and has been a Master Instructor at the Orthopaedic Learning Center in Chicago on numerous occasions.

At the other end of the spectrum from the minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, Dr. Rogerson is a well-respected reconstructive surgeon of the shoulder, hip and knee. He has been one of this area’s more active total joint replacement surgeons, utilizing state-of-the-art laminar air flow and hood filtration systems in all of his cases to lessen the potential for infection.
