The Bone & Joint Center

What The Bone & Joint Center does

The Bone & Joint Center, P.C. is a physician-owned orthopedic professional corporation headquartered in Bismarck, North Dakota, operating since 1974. It runs a multi-clinic orthopedic practice spanning 11–12 locations across North Dakota (Bismarck headquarters plus Dickinson, Beulah, Garrison, Hazen, Linton, Hettinger, Minot, Turtle Lake, Williston, Wishek, and Jamestown) staffed by ten board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons, one neurosurgeon, advanced practice providers, and physical, occupational, and certified hand therapists. Its service portfolio covers the full orthopedic episode — general orthopedics, sports injuries, joint replacement (hip, knee, shoulder, including robotic-assisted shoulder and joint revision), hand and wrist, foot and ankle, shoulder and elbow, trauma and fractures, pediatric orthopedics, neurosurgery, and osteoporosis — supported by in-clinic physical therapy, occupational therapy, hand therapy, and prosthetics/orthotics. Inpatient and outpatient surgical volume is delivered through affiliated facilities CHI St. Alexius Health (Bismarck and Dickinson) and Bismarck Surgical Associates rather than on-site surgical suites.

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis from orthopedic consultations, surgical procedures, and rehabilitation therapy, collected through insurance reimbursements (including Medicare and workers' compensation) plus patient co-payments, deductibles, and co-insurance; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Patient acquisition is primarily referral-driven (primary-care physicians, insurance network participation, and word-of-mouth) supplemented by a content-marketing website with an A-Z patient education library, patient testimonials, local SEO, and the annual Ortho Update CME conference for regional clinicians. The technology stack is Allscripts Practice Management with the Follow My Health patient portal for records and scheduling, PersonaPay/paymydoctor.com for online bill pay, and Sharecare for electronic medical-records release.

Ownership is independent physician-owned; no parent company, private-equity sponsor, or external capital structure has been disclosed. The practice self-positions as North Dakota's premier private orthopedic group, with its geographic dispersion across a low-density state functioning as the primary structural moat alongside the specialist-physician roster.
