About Bradley Dunlap, MD

My endeavor
My endeavor is to keep you moving and get you back to what you love in life.
Care philosophy
I partner with each patient to find the best way to improve their condition. Sometimes surgery is the right answer, but often, nonsurgical options are more effective. I take time to understand my patient’s goals and use my skills to help them achieve the outcome that matters most to them.

Doctor Dunlap was very efficient and effective explaining the issues and potential remedies as well as factors and considerations of each option. We jointly arrived at a best course to pursue and immediately scheduled the next steps to get to a solution. I would highly recommend Dr. Duncan for anyone with knee problems.

Dr. Dunlap is exceptional. His expertise in sports medicine goes far beyond textbook knowledge-he genuinely understands the unique physical demands and mental pressures that come with high-level youth athletics. Whether it's the strain of intense training or the emotional toll of an injury, Dr. Brad gets it. What sets him apart is his ability to communicate with young athletes, and parents, in a way that resonates. He knows that most don't want to hear they need to rest or take time off-but he ensures they understand why it matters, and helps them see the bigger picture. His approach builds trust, confidence, and long-term resilience.
