FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 2, 2025 - Evansville, IN - Orthopaedic Associates is pleased to announce the addition of Dr. Kaitlyn Stevens, DO, a fellowship-trained hand, upper extremity, and microsurgery specialist, to its growing team of musculoskeletal specialists. Dr. Stevens brings expertise in both surgical and non-operative care to help patients restore hand and wrist function and improve quality of life.
Dr. Stevens is board-certified in general surgery and completed her fellowship in hand and wrist surgery at Kettering Health Network, where she gained comprehensive experience treating traumatic, acute, and chronic injuries. Her clinical skill set includes addressing nerve, vascular, bony, and soft tissue conditions, and she is deeply committed to personalized, patient-centered care.
Originally from central Michigan, Dr. Stevens developed a passion for health, fitness, and competition early as a multi-sport athlete. During her undergraduate studies at Central Michigan University, she participated in study abroad programs and completed her first medical mission trip, experiences that shaped her dedication to providing care to underserved communities. She earned her medical degree with honors from Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) in South Carolina and completed her surgical residency back in Michigan, where she served as Chief Resident.
“Dr. Stevens’ commitment to excellence in surgical care, along with her compassionate, patient-driven philosophy, fits perfectly with Orthopaedic Associates’ mission to provide world-class musculoskeletal treatment,” said Jerry Blanton, Orthopaedic Associates CEO. “Her addition enhances our ability to deliver advanced hand and wrist care to patients across the region.”
“Treating patients is a true privilege,” says Dr. Stevens, noting she will “strive to bring motion, purpose, and precision” to her patients’ lives. She also looks forward to working with her patients to “overcome vulnerabilities and access their triumphs, while reaching and realizing their fullest individual potential.”
Outside of the OR, Dr. Stevens enjoys water sports, running, and spending time with her husband and their dogs. She and her husband are excited to begin a new chapter in the Evansville region.
