Bio
Though born in Havre de Grace, Maryland, on the Chesapeake Bay, Dr. Cole originally comes from a small New England town outside of Boston. When he was ten, he moved to Caracas, Venezuela, with his family. There, he spent almost four years developing a love for the Latin culture and gained fluency in Spanish. The family moved to Lighthouse Point, Florida, which has been a family home base for many years and is where he graduated from high school. The other lasting home base and his emotional favorite is Cape Cod, Massachusetts, which is where all the Coles escape annually.
He received his undergraduate degree from Emory University in Atlanta, before taking a two year research fellowship position at Washington University in Saint Louis, the city from which his lovely wife Nancy hails. After this influential period in an elite diabetes and vascular research laboratory, he moved back to south Florida to attend the University of Miami School of Medicine. He subsequently fulfilled his internship and residency at Brown University in Providence before two sequential fellowships in orthopedic traumatology at Brown University-Rhode Island Hospital and then at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, Washington. He took his first academic position at the University of Mississippi School of Medicine in Jackson, where he began to develop new techniques for complex orthopedic pathology, as well as a profound sense of responsibility to indigent care and missions.
He was recruited by the University of Minnesota Department chair in 2002 to build an orthopedic trauma division for the Regions Hospital Level I Trauma Center in Saint Paul. Within a few years, HealthPartners wanted to help develop, under his leadership and collaboration with the University, a full service line orthopedic department which has become one of the most influential orthopedic practices in the Twin Cities.As a full-time professor at the University of Minnesota, practicing out of Regions Hospital, Dr. Cole has developed a worldwide reputation as an educator and researcher on advanced trauma topics including surgery of complex joint injuries, bone malunions, and pelvic ring injuries.
He is a leading expert in minimally invasive fracture care and complex shoulder girdle injury, and has the largest experience on record for the treatment of scapula fractures. Underlying these clinical, administrative, and investigative accomplishments is a passion for creative problem solving and an undying desire for the betterment of medicine for the patient.

Bio
I follow the philosophy of Dr. Francis W. Peabody who wrote in 1927 that “the secret of the care of the patient is caring for the patient.” I work with patients in a process of shared decision-making in which we look together at the best available evidence to come to an informed preference for musculoskeletal care. I believe it is important to follow the outcome of each patient and the end-result of that decision-making to deliver best practice.

Bio
My goal is to provide patient-centered care. This starts with learning what each patient's expectations are during the appointment and carefully listening to the patient to identify potential sources of their symptoms. I believe that patients have incredible insights to the cause of their symptoms and that the patient's experiences are key to identifying the source of pain or limitations.
I also rely on a detailed physical examination to confirm spinal pathology and identify problems in the joints and muscles around the shoulders and pelvis, often which present in a similar fashion to spine pathology. I will review medical imaging with patients to help them understand the source of symptoms and develop a treatment plan to achieve their goals. Surgery is not always necessary, or even possible, but when it is, I want each patient to feel comfortable in the procedure I am recommending and ensure that their questions are answered.

Bio
Orthopedic trauma is a field that demands open and honest communication as well as patient and family centered education. One of the many things I love about my field is partnering with my patients and their families early during a life changing event and helping them navigate through their challenges to give them the best possible outcome. This is best achieved through open communication and education.

Bio
My philosophy of care is to treat every patient with the same time, dedication, and commitment I would invest in a family member. Each patient is unique in their health, lifestyle, and emotional factors that must be evaluated carefully as part of their diagnosis and treatment. I recognize that guidelines for treatment are often standardized for the masses. I strive to examine many factors beyond just the immediate injury or condition before suggesting a treatment recommendation. While a “by-the-numbers" approach is faster for many practitioners, it rarely yields optimal results for the patients.

Bio
As an orthopedic trauma surgeon, it is my job to help people through what is often one of the most challenging periods of their lives. Traumatic injuries occur unexpectedly and can be life-changing. Optimal care frequently requires urgent decision making and understanding the many complex factors at play. My goal is to not only provide high quality care but also help patients and families understand these issues. It may be a long road to recovery after an injury but I will support patients throughout the process to maximize their long-term function.

Clinical Summary
My approach to patient care is to offer honesty, compassion, and a team approach to my patients. I try my best to offer treatment options rather than dictate what to do, and to include my patients in their treatment plan based on their individual needs, wishes, and goals.
