Dr. Downer is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with a special interest in hip and knee preservation surgery. Dr. Downer enjoys seeing patients of all ages, but his special interest in joint preservation has led him to treat many younger patients with hip problems, such as hip dysplasia or hip impingement.

One of only a few surgeons in the Pacific Northwest who performs hip arthroscopies for these issues, Dr. Downer has quickly become one of Seattle’s leading hip specialists. Dr. Downer completed a medical degree and residency at Memorial University Medical School in Canada, and went on to complete a fellowship in pelvic osteotomies and complex joint reconstruction in Bern, Switzerland.
