Alexandria, LA – February 13, 2025 – Mid State Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center is pleased to announce the newest addition to its team, Rashad J. Sullivan, MD, an orthopedic surgeon fellowship-trained in adult total joint reconstruction. Dr. Sullivan’s expertise in advanced hip and knee replacement surgery further enhances the practice’s roster of specialists, ensuring that patients in greater Alexandria and across Central Louisiana have access to exceptional care without having to venture far from home.
“Dr. Sullivan’s training and experience in total joint replacement make him an incredible asset to our team and our community,” said Scott Coleman, CEO of Mid State Orthopaedics. “Having another fellowship-trained total joint specialist available locally means patients do not have to travel long distances for the best orthopedic care—they can receive world-class treatment right here close to home.”

His expertise encompasses primary and revision hip and knee replacements, advanced surgical techniques, and the integration of robotic-assisted technology to optimize patient outcomes.

He has chosen to set up his practice in Alexandria because of the area’s vibrant culture and the genuine warmth of its community. Dr. Sullivan is deeply committed to service both in his medical practice and through active involvement in his church. He looks forward to contributing to the community’s well-being, and he, his wife, and their three children are excited to embrace the Alexandria area as their new home.
