Dr. Michael Kissenberth, MD

Dr. Michael Kissenberth, MD

Orthopedic Surgeon
701 Congaree Rd, Greenville, SC
I'm passionate about helping patients get back to the activities they love. I've dedicated my career to caring for athletes and active individuals of all ages, and have received national recognition in sports medicine, as well as complex surgery of the shoulder, elbow and knee. I played college football at The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina, in Charleston. I was a linebacker and served as team captain. I gained a deep understanding of sports injuries and that inspired me choose orthopedic sports medicine as the best way to make a difference. The majority of my clinical work focuses on the advanced treatment of shoulder and elbow conditions. I have an extensive experience in anatomic and reverse shoulder arthroplasty, cartilage restoration, rotator cuff injuries, shoulder instability and labral tears, and the care of the overhead athlete. In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a full clinical professor of orthopedic surgery and have been program director of the Steadman Hawkins Clinic of the Carolinas Sports Medicine fellowship program, one of the national recognized top programs in the country. I've been able to focus on advancing orthopaedics through research and education, publishing and lecturing around the country, and that work enables me to use the latest advances in treatment for my patients. One of the areas of research I'm most interested in is injury prevention in the overhead athlete as well as surgical techniques to help pitchers perform at the highest level. I serve as a physician adviser for ongoing research evaluating the risk factors, treatment strategies and critical steps for return to sport in throwing athletes. I'm also involved in ongoing research trials and relevant work as an adjunct professor for Clemson University in bioengineering. I enjoy serving the community and have served as "team doc" for many local high schools, colleges and the Greenville Drive, and as a consultant for the Colorado Rockies.
