Dr. Kocan chose orthopedic sports medicine and shoulder reconstruction because it provides the opportunity to care for patients of all ages while helping them regain what matters most: the ability to move, function, and fully participate in their lives. He finds it especially rewarding that orthopedic care can help people reclaim their physical capabilities, whether that means returning a young athlete to competition, helping a weekend warrior stay active, or enabling someone to live without pain. Through a sports medicine approach focused on restoring function, optimizing movement, and preventing future injury, Dr. Kocan enjoys partnering with patients to help them achieve their highest level of performance and quality of life.
Outside of work, Dr. Kocan enjoys staying active by training for triathlons and is currently preparing for his first full Ironman. He also enjoys exploring new restaurants with his fiancé and traveling both domestically and internationally to visit friends, experience new cultures, and pursue new adventures. These experiences help him to maintain balance, embrace new challenges, and bring the same curiosity and dedication to his professional life that he also values in his personal life.
