About Thomas Byrnes, MD
My clinical focus is getting people back to the activities they enjoy. This includes comprehensive management of sports, traumatic, and degenerative injuries with a focus on the shoulder and knee. I perform both arthroscopic and open surgery. My passion for activity and my desire to help others led me to orthopedic surgery. I love the Pacific Northwest and spending time outdoors with my family - hiking, skiing, getting out on the water. I am a dedicated Seahawks, Mariners and Kraken fan.Philosophy of care
I want to meet patients where they are and understand their health goals. Working together, we can develop the best treatment for their needs. While there are many common injuries we see, there is no 'one-size-fits-all' treatment plan.Gender
