A firm believer in the importance of establishing a trustworthy patient-provider relationship, Dr. Howarth dedicates himself to empowering each and every patient with the respect, knowledge, and insights needed to guide the treatment plan to its best possible outcome. "I knew I had to pursue orthopaedics the first time I replaced an arthritic knee and saw the patient get back to enjoying an active lifestyle again."

To further enhance his expertise, he successfully completed the Otto E. Aufranc Adult Reconstruction Fellowship at New England Baptist Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.

While serving, he performed or supervised all military total hip and knee replacements in the Colorado Springs area and standardized care through Army and Air Force commands, optimizing patient care and outcomes.

Having practiced in Colorado Springs since 2013, Dr. Howarth was the Chief of the Colorado Springs Government Hospital System's Total Joint Replacement Initiative from 2015 to 2022.

Committed to excellence, he is board-certified in orthopaedic surgery by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS).
