My approach to patient care is centered around education. I think it is extremely important for each patient to understand their injury or problem, the treatment options, and the expectations of any given treatment. I incorporate evidence-based medicine to give appropriate and individualized treatment options. I also use up-to-date technology including minimally invasive techniques to maximize surgical results and return to activity.
Dr. Linger and his family are excited to be a part of the Colorado Springs community! His wife is an occupational therapist and certified functional nutritionist. Their growing children are active in music and sports, and they read more books than can be kept on the bookshelf. As a family, they enjoy time hiking, exploring new cuisines, laughing, and always being ready for something new. If there is any free time for Dr. Linger, you might find him on the golf course, at the YMCA, playing tennis, or enjoying a coffee at a local cafe.
