Dr. Tanner Harrah, DO

Orthopedic Surgeon
1334 W Covina Blvd, Ste 105, San Dimas, CA
Dr. Tanner Harrah is a Board Eligible Orthopedic Surgeon who is fellowship trained in Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy. He grew up in Temecula, CA, eventually earning a full scholarship in football and competed in track and field at California State University, Sacramento. He obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in exercise physiology and therapeutic rehabilitation. He then attended medical school at West Virginia school of Osteopathic Medicine in Lewisburg, WV. He went on to complete a 5-year orthopedic surgery residency at Riverside University Health System where he was named Chief Resident and earned Kaiser Resident of the year award. Following the completion of residency, Dr. Harrah spent an additional year to attain specialized fellowship training in sports medicine at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida. During that year he trained in complex knee and shoulder procedures focusing on minimally invasive techniques, arthroscopy, and arthroplasty. In addition, he was the assistant team physician for the University of Miami football, baseball, men's/women's basketball, women’s soccer teams as well as for the Miami Marlins major league baseball team. Dr. Harrah specializes in treating athletes of all ages and abilities focusing on arthroscopic and open surgical techniques. Dr. Harrah’s general orthopedic practice encompasses virtually all areas of orthopedic surgery including pediatrics, hand, trauma, and joint replacement. He has a specific interest in performing quadricep tendon autograft ACL reconstruction using an “all-side” dual suspensory fixation technique. This minimally invasive surgical approach is new and shows similar outcomes to bone tendon bone reconstruction with less morbidity (less pain, increase strength) in large studies.
