Faculty

Andrea Herzka, MD

Dr. Andrea Herzka is a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon who specializes in the treatment of sports injuries: primarily injuries to the knee, shoulder and hip regions. Her areas of interest include: ACL reconstruction and revision surgery, as well as surgical treatments for kneecap dislocations, shoulder instability and dislocations, rotator cuff injuries, labral injuries in the hip, and hip preservation.

Dr. Herzka attended medical school in her hometown San Francisco at UCSF, then did residency at Johns Hopkins University and Sports Medicine sub-specialty training at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center where she assisted in caring for the Pittsburgh Steelers and other high level professional and college athletes. She spent additional time training in hip arthroscopy prior to joining the OHSU faculty.

Dr. Herzka values open communication that fosters inclusivity as well as mutual respect and understanding in the doctor-patient relationship.

Dr. Herzka serves as the director of OHSU orthopedic resident arthroscopic simulation training as well as team doctor for Beaverton High School. She is an active member of the American Orthopedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM), Arthroscopy Association of North America (AANA), American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) and the International Society for Hip Arthroscopy (ISHA).

Connor King, MD

As a fellowship trained joint replacement surgeon, Dr. King specializes in treating patients with hip and knee arthritis, beginning with non-operative approaches. His goal is always to treat patients conservatively with therapies or medication before considering surgery. When total joint replacement surgery is necessary, he uses advanced technology and minimally invasive approaches, including direct anterior hip replacement, to help deliver the best possible patient outcomes.

Dr. King first became interested in medicine in high school when he volunteered as a firefighter and EMT. In medical school, he quickly gravitated to orthopaedic surgery and found it extremely rewarding to help patients get back to doing what they love. During his residency at the University of Chicago, the busiest level 1 trauma center in the city, he also gained an interest in caring for orthopaedic trauma patients. He completed his fellowship training under Dr. Christopher Peters at the University of Utah, one of the top joint replacement programs in the country.

The most gratifying part of being a total joint surgeon is hearing from his patients after recovery, excited to share what they are able to do following hip or knee surgery. He enjoys working with the multidisciplinary team and delivering the highest quality joint replacement care to Central Oregon. He enjoys hiking, skiing, woodworking, traveling, cooking, and exploring the outdoors with his wife and dog.

Adam Lindsay, MD

Dr. Adam Lindsay is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon specializing in Sports Medicine, Fracture care, and Shoulder Arthroplasty (Replacements). Originally from just outside South Lake Tahoe, CA, he was previously a Division 1 Water Polo player at UC Davis, and competed at the international level. He attended medical school at Drexel University in Philadelphia, and then completed his orthopaedic surgical training at the University of Southern California one of the largest level 1 trauma centers on the West Coast. He received extensive training in the care of fractures, soft tissue injuries, and joint replacements.

After residency, he pursued a Sports Medicine fellowship at the University of Colorado, where he completed over 700 cases under the guidance of world-renowned orthopaedists. It was there he honed skills in arthroscopy and shoulder arthroplasty (replacements), and developed a passion for complex knee, hip, and shoulder pathology. Additionally ,he specializes in fracture care with considerable training in fracture care in athletes of all levels. He has published multiple book chapters, articles, and presented at national conferences on these topics.

Getting back to a pre-injury level of activity is often a long and tough process. Dr. Lindsay appreciates that having an approachable and invested surgical team is critical to a patients’ improvement.  He is looking forward to providing for a thriving and growing community and could not be more honored to serve this area.

When not in clinic or the operating room, Dr. Lindsay can usually be found out on some adventure with his wife Rachelle, daughter Addison and dog Khione. He typically tries to mountain bike and ski (both on resort and backcountry) every chance he can get. His golf game is, currently, ok at best.

Tony Rocklin PT, DPT

Tony Rocklin graduated from Oregon State University with a degree in Exercise and Sport Science in 1994 and was a member of the Men’s Varsity Basketball team. He earned his Physical Therapy degree with distinction in 1998 as well as his Clinical Doctorate in 2008 from Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon. He has continued his advanced education through the North American Institute of Orthopaedic Manual Therapy, achieving Level IV Certification in Manual and Manipulative Therapy. Although Tony enjoys working with a variety of musculoskeletal conditions of the spine and extremities in both the young and aging populations, his area of special interest includes hip intra-articular pathology such as osteoarthritis (OA), femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) and labral tears.

Tony Rocklin has co-authored and published three research articles and continues pursuing new research projects involving the conservative management of hip pathology.

When not in the clinic, he enjoys spending time with his wife Sarah and their two children, Miles and Delaney, as well participating in golf, functional fitness and being outdoors.
