M. Contreras, M.D.
Doctor Contreras, began practicing orthopaedic medicine in 1991
after receiving his medical degree and completing his internship and
residency at University of California, San Francisco. His ensuing
fellowship in orthopaedic trauma prepared him for a challenging
position as Assistant Clinical Professor for the Department of
Orthopedic Surgery at UCSF’s School of Medicine, and lead to his
appointment as the acting Chief of the Orthopaedic Department at San
Francisco General Hospital.
Dr. Contreras applies 10
years of experience and knowledge daily to overcome orthopaedic
challenges. His thoroughness and contemplative nature ensure all
avenues are explored when planning treatment, and his traditional
values and personable demeanor offer patients comfort in addition to
superior medicine.
Dr. Contreras currently practices general
orthopaedic surgery with a special interest in sports medicine and
trauma surgery at Muir Orthopaedic Specialists. An educator by
nature, he has lectured and authored several articles on his
specialty.
