Whether helping you overcome an injury or an athlete returning to the field, Dr. Dreikorn enjoys being part of the process that gets you moving confidently and free of pain again.

Dr. Dreikorn has a special interest in complex foot and ankle reconstruction and lower extremity conditions, including:

• Minimally invasive surgery techniques
• Bunion surgery
• Foot/ankle trauma
• Limb salvage
• Flatfoot reconstruction

His early exposure to sports and athletic injuries sparked his interest in the foot and ankle, and he continues to enjoy helping patients of all activity levels return to the sports, hobbies and everyday activities that are important to them.

When he's not caring for patients, Dr. Dreikorn loves being outside and spending time with his wife, Gabrielle and their two children, Rowan and Rory. They also have a golden retriever, Franklin who is always down for a good game of tennis ball! On the weekends, he enjoys going to car shows, wakesurfing and exploring the seasonal activities middle Tennessee has to offer!
