A Sammamish native, Dr. Menninger realized a passion for understanding human movement while obtaining his undergrad degree at WWU. While in Colorado, he received extensive training in foot and ankle reconstruction, sports medicine and biomechanics during residency.
“I chose SVH because I feel connected to this community,” he said. “It is my hope to provide quality and timely specialized care in a convenient location. There is a need for specialty foot and ankle care in the district and I look forward to working with existing services to coordinate patient care to help reduce pain and improve function for patients.”
