| Military Medicine with Dr. Jon Minter! | 10 juin 2025 | 01:08:01 | |
What a privilege, a conversation with Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Jon Minter! We talk about his work at Save a Warrior, robotic surgery, infection, 1.5 knees, his time with Dr. Larry Dorr, disasterplasties, Mad magazine....and so much more!! Dr. Minter served on active duty in the US Army during the height of the Cold War in West Germany and in particular West Berlin.

Following his active duty service he became an Orthopedic surgeon, currently working in Alpharetta, Georgia. His interest in Save A Warrior was borne out of a strong desire to offer more to veterans than what surgery could accomplish. Simply put, he wanted to be a part of a team with the chief object of healing the wounded heart. His family has a long lineage of service in both the military and first responder categories. He has been married to his wife for over 33 years and has three children in which he is intensely proud.
