Biography
Joseph M. Kroner, M.D.
General Orthopaedic Surgeon
Dr. Joseph Kroner sees primarily adults to adolescents and offers both operative and non-operative treatment options. His goal is to diagnose the problem and then come to a shared decision on a plan to help you be your best. He specializes in general orthopaedic problems, such as joint replacement surgery, arthroscopic surgery, fractures, and sports medicine.
I was born and raised in Wisconsin and continued my training here. I enjoy spending time with my wife and four kids as well as golfing, fishing, and following Wisconsin sports.
