Cabinet Peaks Medical Center welcomes new orthopedic surgeon

Cabinet Peaks Medical Center has announced that Dr. Julienne Lippe has joined Cabinet Peaks Clinics as an orthopedic surgeon to help continue to bring needed services to Lincoln County.

With more than 10 years of experience in medicine, Dr. Lippe is committed to collaborating closely with her patients to assist them in attaining their healthcare objectives.

Her primary focus is providing top quality care to her patients. Dr. Lippe obtained her Doctorate of Medicine from Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, Louisiana. She completed her Orthopedic Surgery Residency at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri and a Sports Medicine Fellowship at the University of Connecticut.

She has been practicing at Mercy Clinic Orthopedics in St. Louis for several years. While working for Mercy Clinic, she had the opportunity to work with multiple high school sports programs and was a key member of the medical team for the St. Louis Cardinals.

At Cabinet Peaks Clinic, the orthopedic practice will specialize in diagnosing and treating problems involving the soft tissues, bones and joints of the extremities.

“Dr. Lippe is an outstanding addition to our provider team here in Libby,” stated Tadd Greenfield, Chief Executive Officer at Cabinet Peaks Medical Center. “She comes to Cabinet Peaks Clinic with outstanding large hospital training and experience and is extremely well-regarded by her colleagues. While she is extremely qualified and accomplished, Dr. Lippe is the most personable orthopedic surgeon that I have met in my 20 years of healthcare management. We are very fortunate to have such a personable and skilled orthopedic surgeon in Libby, Montana.”

The Medical Center says it offers a range of medical, surgical and physical therapy treatments to restore function and our services include minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery of the upper and lower extremities (including rotator cuff injuries, shoulder instability, ACL reconstruction and meniscus surgeries), joint replacement of the shoulder, hip and knee, sports and industrial injuries as well as fracture care and sports medicine coverage.

Julienne and her husband Bill are very excited about their move to Libby.

“We both grew up in small towns and have been a part of that type of community. In a small town, everyone knows everyone and this creates a feeling of closeness and connection that is hard to find in larger cities,” stated Dr. Lippe.

“Moving to Libby was not a hard choice for us. We always vacationed in destinations with trees and mountains and northwest Montana has always been our favorite. We fell in love with Libby the moment we drove into town. The community has been so welcoming and friendly and we are excited to give back and support Lincoln County.”

In their spare time, Julienne and Bill love to spend time outdoors with their two Ridgeback dogs. They love to hike, fly fish, ski, and garden.

“We feel very blessed to be given the opportunity to live and work in such an amazing community.”

Cabinet Peaks Clinic Orthopedic Surgery is scheduled to begin seeing patients the first part of May and is located at 308 in Louisiana, Suite 2.
