Biography

Dr. Sauer completed his medical degree at the University of Colorado, internship in pediatrics at Geisinger Commonwealth, residency at Medical College of Wisconsin in physical medicine and rehabilitation, and fellowship in spinal cord injury medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin. This allows for a broad practice in both pediatric and adult care across the spectrum of disability. His interest is in easing the transition of care for children with disability from the pediatric to adult healthcare systems, as it is often a very challenging transition.
