EmergeOrtho announced Monday that their orthopedic practice is expanding to Iredell County. Dr. Dale Rader will join EmergeOrtho at his current location on Fern Creek Drive in Statesville.

“We are thrilled to expand our footprint into Iredell County and bring Dr. Dale Rader on our team,” said Kyle Raygor, CEO of the Foothills Region for EmergeOrtho. “Dr. Rader shares our vision of putting patients first with expert, innovative orthopedic care and has served the Iredell community for 15 years.”

Building on Rader’s already excellent reputation, EmergeOrtho plans to expand services over the next few months to include pain management (coming in June), enhanced imaging services, and increased appointment availability.

Plans also include building a new state of the art facility to include an orthopedic urgent care as well as physical and hand therapy.

“We believe we can bring advanced expertise and services right to this local community,” Raygor explained.

Grand opening events are planned for this new location, including an open house event on May 2 at 5 p.m., as well as an official ribbon cutting with the Greater Statesville Chamber of Commerce.
