Joseph P. Nessler, M.D.
General Orthopedics
Total Joints and Revisions

Dr. Nessler received his orthopedic training at the Rochester Mayo Clinic. He has a specialty practice in muscle-sparing hip and knee joint replacement as well as revisions. Dr. Nessler joined St Cloud Orthopedics in 1991, and is a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons as well as American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons. Dr. Nessler is a consultant for Stryker Orthopedics, a world wide leader in orthopedic implants. Currently, he consults in the development of new surgical technique and clinical testing of new implant designs. Dr. Nessler has developed a muscle-sparing dual incision hip replacement technique in conjunction with Stryker. In July, 2004 computer assisted navigation was incorporated into his hip surgeries. Navigation in knee surgeries began in January 2005. Navigation allows for the most accurate component placements and is particularly helpful in minimally invasive (MIS) surgery.
