History

Established in 1933.

In 1933, just as orthopedic surgery was emerging as a medical specialty, Dr. Harry Blair founded the Orthopedic & Fracture Clinic in downtown Portland, Oregon. Dr. Thatcher joined him in 1935, and Dr. Davis in 1939. These men gained a national reputation for their pioneering work in the new field of orthopedics. They began the tradition of teaching, research and excellence in patient care that has characterized the OFC for over 75 years. In the 1940s, Dr. Blair & Dr. Davis left the clinic to serve in World War II. The casualties of that conflict changed orthopedics forever, showing the power of surgery to help and heal the injured. The years since then have seen advances in technology undreamed of by the first orthopedists: new materials, techniques, understanding of the body and how it works. The future promises continuing advances. While technology has changed since 1933, the Mission remains the same: «To provide skilled, effective & compassionate orthopedic care.»
