WHAT IS YOUR HEALTHCARE PASSION? I am truly passionate about having a real, lasting impact on a patient’s life. Orthopaedics as a specialty allows the opportunity to truly “fix” a medical problem and help patients maintain a healthy, active lifestyle.
HOW DOES YOUR PRACTICE GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY? All-Star Orthopaedics is the official orthopaedic and spine care provider for Carroll ISD providing coverage both on the field and in our Southlake office. We conduct student physicals for all aspiring Carroll UIL athletes with all proceeds going to CISD. Annually, our practice makes contributions to support the Carroll Education Foundation, Carroll Medical Academy and numerous Carroll sports programs.
Mark S. Greenberg, M.D.
WHAT IS THE MOST REWARDING PART OF YOUR JOB? By far the most rewarding part of my practice is watching an injured athlete that I have treated be able to return to sports and achieve their goals. Knowing you played a part in that success story is really special.
WHAT IS A COMMON MISCONCEPTION IN YOUR FIELD? A lot of people come to our practice anticipating or expecting surgery. Although surgery sometimes is the best option, the majority of our patients’ problems have more conservative treatment options. Orthopedic Surgeons are the musculoskeletal treatment experts, and we can help patients navigate the treatment options for the best possible outcome.
Brian E. Straus, M.D.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE YOUR PARTICULAR SPECIALTY? I chose orthopaedic foot and ankle surgery because of the diversity. I treat a wide spectrum of patients, from the very young to the elderly. In addition, I am able to perform a wide array of procedures from small, minimally invasive procedures to large reconstructions. This keeps it interesting!
WHAT IS THE BEST PROFESSIONAL ADVICE YOU’VE EVER RECEIVED? Although commonly stated, the exercise of attempting to treat each patient like you would treat your own family member is invaluable. I try to exercise this with every complicated decision and feel that this helps me to clear my mind and focus on what is most important to that individual patient.
