Meet Dr. Shawn Sahota: Putting Patients First Inside and Outside the Exam Room
At Columbia Orthopaedic Group, every patient's journey matters. Recently, our own Dr. Shawn Sahota, Vice President, Orthopaedic Surgeon, and Sports Medicine specialist, joined 939 The Eagle's "CEO Roundtable" to share the story of his path in medicine, Columbia Orthopaedic Group's growth, and the core values that drive our team forward.
A Columbia Native With World-Class Training
Dr. Sahota's journey is rooted in Mid-Missouri — from Rock Bridge High School to the University of Missouri, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude. He later trained at the prestigious Mayo Clinic for medical school and completed orthopaedic residency at Northwestern University before finishing a sports medicine fellowship at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, one of the top orthopaedic programs in the country. Today he brings that level of expertise back home to serve our community.
What Matters Most: The Patient First
On the podcast, Dr. Sahota emphasized that the cornerstone of Columbia Orthopaedic Group's care is patient-centered service. Whether you're a young athlete sidelined by injury, a weekend warrior dealing with joint pain, or someone navigating recovery after surgery, Columbia Orthopaedic Group's approach prioritizes what matters most — getting you back to living your life with confidence and strength.
Leading With Experience and Purpose
As Vice President of Columbia Orthopaedic Group, Dr. Sahota plays a vital role in shaping our practice's future. In the interview, he expressed gratitude for the trust of his colleagues and the support of the Mid-Missouri medical community — and spoke passionately about expanding access, improving value, and building on Columbia Orthopaedic Group's legacy of exceptional care.
