Dr. Meredith Warner founded her Baton Rouge clinic, Warner Orthopedics and Wellness, in April 2013. Having served earlier in the US Air Force as a surgeon and in private practice since 2005, Dr. Warner understands how poor diet, stress, lack of restorative sleep, and lack of energy lower the body’s ability to fight disease. The result: prolonged recovery.
An expert in foot and ankle surgery and other orthopedic injuries, Dr. Warner wanted to open her own orthopedic clinic in Baton Rouge to better serve her patients and to expand the services she was able to offer if she were hospital employed—services that treat the whole person and capitalize on the latest research about diet, natural treatments, and alternative methods to protect and heal the body with less-invasive procedures offered through traditional medical practices.
In addition to her orthopedic practice and wellness firms, she teaches physicians at Louisiana State University’s Department of Orthopedic Surgery. Dr. Warner is also the inventor of The Healing Sole footwear and Well Theory, a breakthrough wellness protocol designed to empower people with the tools they need to treat their pain naturally, improve sleep and extend their health span.
