Advanced Minimally Invasive Hip Surgery
Specialized hip preservation focuses on treating structural abnormalities and soft tissue injuries early to relieve mechanical pain, restore mobility, and protect the native joint.
Hip arthroscopy
High-definition camera visualization through small portals to diagnose and treat intra-articular pathology without large open incisions.
Labral tears
Anatomic refixation and labral reconstruction techniques designed to restore the suction seal of the hip joint and prevent early degeneration.
Femoroacetabular impingement
Precise fluoroscopic and arthroscopic bone reshaping (cam and pincer decompression) to eliminate bone-on-bone conflict and restore full range of motion.
Hip preservation
Capsular closure, cartilage restoration, and tailored rehabilitation protocols to protect natural anatomy and prolong long-term joint life.

Precision Technology
High-resolution arthroscopic visualization & anatomical anchor placement
Highest-Volume Hip Arthroscopist
Dr. Brandon Beamer brings extensive training from Cornell (medical school), Harvard (orthopedic residency), and Stanford (sports medicine fellowship, where he trained in advanced hip arthroscopy techniques), providing dedicated hip joint preservation to athletes and active patients across Montana.

Anatomical precision and comprehensive diagnostics
In-office anatomical modeling and high-resolution imaging guide every decision, ensuring conservative care is exhausted before surgical intervention.
- Sub-centimeter arthroscopic incisions for faster soft-tissue healing
- Customized rehabilitation protocols calibrated to alpine sports and ranching
- Advanced pre-operative 3D CT surgical planning for replacement cases
- Orthobiologic adjuncts (PRP) integrated where clinically proven
Restoring shoulder stability and function
Arthroscopic repair and shoulder replacement designed to resolve chronic instability, repair torn tissue, and restore full strength for outdoor recreation and daily work.
Fellowship-trained shoulder care
With medical training at Cornell, orthopedic residency at Harvard, a sports medicine fellowship at Stanford, experience caring for elite athletes with the San Francisco 49ers, and his current role as team physician for the Montana State Bobcats, Dr. Beamer provides precision shoulder techniques ranging from complex arthroscopic stabilization to total and reverse shoulder arthroplasty.
Minimally invasive arthroscopic repair to anchor torn tendons, stabilize labral tears, and restore natural overhead mobility.
Targeted anatomical fixation to relieve anterior shoulder pain and repair superior labral (SLAP) tears from acute or repetitive strain.
Precision reconstruction for active individuals, from anatomic joint replacement to reverse shoulder arthroplasty for complex cuff-tear arthropathy.
Bankart repair, capsular plication, and bone augmentation procedures to prevent recurrent dislocations in contact and mountain athletes.
Elite knee preservation & ligament repair
From high-speed Big Sky turns to backcountry trails, knee stability demands surgical precision. Dr. Beamer delivers evidence-backed joint preservation and reconstructive techniques engineered for peak recovery.
