About Benjamin Zellner, MD

Dr. Zellner was born in La Crosse, and while growing up in Waunakee, he often visited Northeastern Wisconsin with his family.

Dr. Zellner has also traveled extensively throughout his training. He was an AO traveling fellow in Spain and completed medical mission work in India, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Colombia. These experiences have helped him to become fluent in Spanish.

Dr. Zellner is excited to provide orthopedic hand care in his home state, and he looks forward to opportunities to continue his medical mission work. He and his wife, who is a local family medicine physician, enjoy spending time outdoors with their children, particularly hiking, biking, and cross country skiing.
