About Dr. Sauer
Philosophy of care
My approach is treating others as I would want to be treated. I am mindful of you as an individual and your overall patient experience. Although broad treatment options may be present for your condition, I will adapt your treatment to you, the individual. I want you to feel comfortable as we take the journey through your treatment and recovery. I take the doctor-patient relationship seriously.
Why I entered medicine
My love of science and helping others led me into the field. My father was a practicing orthopedic surgeon in the Lehigh Valley for more than 40 years, and his honest and selfless service to others was an important influence in my career choice.
Community involvement
Being mindful of the needs of others less fortunate is important to me and my family. I am honored to practice in my hometown and provide the best possible and most advanced care to my patients.
Personal interests
Outside of work I am overwhelmed by my three kids and their various activities throughout the year. While my wife and I are like passing ships in the night when driving all over the place for the kids, we enjoy taking time for ourselves to workout, travel and watch movies.
