## Matt Friederichs MD & Alex Lunneborg PA-C

After 20 years in a multispecialty setting, Dr. Friederichs opened [OrthoDakota](/article/face-of-orthopedics-orthodakota-2) to focus on patient-centered orthopedic care.

At OrthoDakota, patients are not just numbers—from the initial clinic visit to the final post-operative check-up, the team provides personalized care and attention while employing state-ofthe-art medical care and technology. Their full suite of offerings includes cutting-edge pain relief, procedures, and imaging—as well as advanced joint replacements with MAKO robotic assistance.

Dr. Friederichs, a University of North Dakota Medical School graduate, completed his orthopedic surgery residency and fellowship at the University of Utah.

Alex Lunneborg, a skilled Physician Assistant, joined in May 2023, bringing expertise in ultrasound-guided injections and diagnostics.

OrthoDakota moved into the new Rivers Bend Medical Center in January 2024, which gives them a greater ability to provide same-day surgery and recovery at home.
