About Me
As an orthopedic surgeon, I specialize in operative and non-operative management of sports-related injuries and conditions of the knee and shoulder. I treat patients of all ages, from the high school athlete to the weekend warrior. I have a special interest in joint preservation and treatments for early arthritis of the knee through my training at the Cartilage Repair Center at Harvard University. I plan to use the treatment strategies I learned in Boston for my patients at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.
My favorite part about working at Ohio State is the team-based approach to care. I enjoy working closely with physical therapists, nurses, researchers, physician assistants and other physicians to ensure that our patients are receiving the best treatments resulting in the best outcomes.
When I’m not working I enjoy spending time outdoors, watching movies and attending Ohio State football games.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 11/21/2019, Dr. Duerr has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
Dr. Duerr is very thorough, caring, detailed, and professional. I couldn't ask for a better surgeon.
Dr Duerr's the best doctor I've ever had. He fixed me. I reccomend him to everyone.
I was not given very much time and I left with lots of questions unanswered
Dr. Duerr has been great. I have a couple different health problems effecting one another. Dr. Duerr is the first physician that has been able to see & understand how it is effecting me.
My regular doctor misdiagnosed my life threatening blood clot and he took appropriate actions and it was diagnosed and now I am working on getting back to health. I am extremely grateful he did his job properly, I had been told my pain was due to a pulled muscle.
This was my first visit with this provider and I was very pleased. He explained things very well, was patient with my questions and answered them. I didn't feel like he was rushing through the appointment.
Everything was fine.
Excellent care by employees who seem to be very happy in their jobs. From the first pre surge appointment to this most recent follow up, everyone has been wonderful. Have recommended the Crane Center to many people.
Dr. Duerr listened to my concerns & ordered MRI based on that - my recent appt. was a follow up for surgery performed based on those results. I am extremely grateful to have been taken seriously & to have such good results from the follow-through.
my care provider is very caring & explained my prognosis in easy to understand language. He is a good listener, honest, & made me feel at ease.
