| | Philosophy of care/General Information: | Many patients express interest in minimally invasive approaches to hip and knee surgery. I believe that this type of surgery, though technically challenging, offers many benefits to the patient, including less tissue injury, less post-operative pain, faster rehabilitation, and a shorter hospital stay. My major interests relate to the care and treatment of osteoarthritis. My aim is to conduct clinical research that has a significant impact on the field while raising the clinical standards for optimal patient care. I want to reduce morbidity and improve outcomes in these patients not only through research but also by establishing a model of care that can be universally applied, easily adapted to both academic and community groups and led by outstanding trainees who can influence care throughout the world.
| | Clinic locations and days of week: | Dr.
Manner sees patients on the east side of Seattle
at the Eastside
Specialty Center, which can be reached by calling (425) 646-7777. He also
sees patients at the Bone and
Joint Center near the University
of Washington. Call 206-598-BONE (2663) at the Bone and Joint Center. | | Appointment request information (web, phone, fax): | University of Washington Bone and Joint Center - Phone: 206-598-BONE (2663) or Eastside Specialty Center: (425) 646-7777 | | Research Interests: | - Improve our understanding of cartilage biology, in particular the role of
artificial matrix constructs to replace or augment diseased cartilage,
- Apply
this understanding to development of new treatments relevant to joint diseases,
and
- Introduce new techniques into clinical use, thus translating laboratory
findings into practical treatment for life-impairing joint disorders.
In terms of clinical practice, I have been active in attempting to address perioperative morbidity and complications by the use of minimally invasive techniques for hip and knee replacement. In January 2003, I performed the first two-incision total hip arthroplasty in Washington, DC, after approximately one year of utilizing mini-incision approaches, which modified existing standard techniques. These techniques are now being applied in similar fashion to total knee arthroplasty. Clinical assessment studies are now ongoing for these techniques.
Since my arrival at the University of Washington, I have continued to collaborate with the Cartilage Biology and Orthopaedics Branch, and form new collaborations with groups at the University of Washington. My most active project of this type involves translational research in conjunction with Buddy Ratner, PhD of the University of Washington Engineered Biomaterials group.

An Interview with Gregory A. Schmale, M.D.
Greg grew up in Rochester, New York, learning to love the outdoors and a wide variety of sporting activities. A yearning for higher education led him to medical school at the University of Washington and his current career path ultimately into pediatric orthopedics.
