After receiving his doctorate of osteopathy degree, he began an internship and residency in orthopedic surgery at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. He then went on to complete an AOTrauma fellowship in Fribourg, Switzerland.
Dr. Braut has been practicing orthopedic surgery in Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte since 2013. He practices general orthopedics with an emphasis on fracture care, arthritis treatment, joint replacement, shoulder and rotator cuff surgery, carpal tunnel surgery, knee and meniscus surgery, stem cell surgery, and arthroscopic surgery. Dr. Braut is certified to perform robot assisted partial knee replacement and total hip replacement utilizing the MAKO robotic assisted arm. He also serves on the hip fracture committee at Fawcett Memorial Hospital, which works to improve outcomes for patients who have sustained a hip fracture.
Dr. Braut believes in carefully listening to you about your ailments and how they are affecting your life. He explains the diagnosis in an easy-to-understand manner. He will develop a treatment plan for which to ease pain and improve quality of life and ensure you understand your options. His initial plan involves nonsurgical treatments to avoid surgery.
However, if conservative treatments fail and surgery is necessary, he personally explains as much information as possible to guide you through the process and ease concerns. Dr. Braut and his highly trained staff work to improve quality of life and get you back on the field, course, or court utilizing the latest treatments and technologies in the least invasive way possible.
