In memory of our dear friend & colleague
Joel B. Gonzales, M.D.
Dear Patients, Friends, and Colleagues:
It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Dr. Gonzales in October of 2024. He was a partner with Orthopedic Associates/OCC for 23 years and helped thousands of patients return to an active and fulfilling life. He was a beloved and dedicated doctor to his patients, he was a great friend and confidant of many physicians and colleagues, and above all else, a very loving and caring family man.
He will be sincerely missed. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to https://givebutter.com/Joel_Gonzales
The practice is committed to providing continued care to all patients of Dr. Gonzales with his two other Orthopedic Sports Medicine partners Dr. Parker and Dr. Wydra. For chronic joint issues or total joint replacement his partners Dr. Larkin and Dr. Caufield are happy to take care of you. Please contact us at: 303-321-6600.
