“I work to engage the patient as an equal part­ner in their care. I feel that my duty is to inform the patient in a car­ing man­ner of all the options that are avail­able to them. I then strive to active­ly assist the patient in arriv­ing at the best treat­ment pos­si­ble. I believe that an active and engaged patient makes the best patient, and that this involve­ment of the patient in their own care will lead to the best outcome.”

A 1999 graduate of the Washington University School of Medicine (Missouri), Dr. Murphy went on to perform his internship at Louisiana State University Hospital (Shreveport) in 2000. Subsequently, he completed his residency at the Louisiana State University Medical Center (New Orleans) in 2004, followed by a fellowship at the University of Chicago Medical Center in 2005.

With over two decades of experience in his field, the doctor holds board certification in orthopedic surgery and surgery of the hand through the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery (ABOS).
