Jacquelyn Dunahoe, MD

Jacquelyn Dunahoe, MD, is a UW Health orthopedic surgeon and assistant professor in the Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. She specializes in trauma, orthopedic (bone, muscle and joint) trauma and joint replacement surgery.

Dr. Dunahoe cares for patients who have broken bones and traumatic injuries affecting muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons. She also treats arthritis-related tissue deterioration and injuries that restrict a person’s ability to move or function. Her clinical interests include trauma and joint replacement procedures.

Dunahoe personalizes care to meet each patient’s unique needs. She talks with patients about their condition, treatment options and goals, and what to expect during recovery. Her goal for every patient is to help them get back to the activities they enjoy doing most.

In addition to surgical care, Dr. Dunahoe teaches medical students and helps advance resident education using training options based on leading-edge technologies. She also conducts research focused on evaluating patient-reported outcomes after surgery.

In her free time, Dr. Dunahoe enjoys outdoor activities such as biking, cross-country skiing and downhill skiing. She also enjoys water sports, fishing and hunting.

I love helping people get to back to doing the things they want to do so they can live an active, fulfilling life.
