Specializing in ACL Reconstruction & Minimally Invasive Shoulder Surgery


Dr. Galland began his career in Orthopedic Surgery and Sports Medicine while serving in the United States Navy at Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. There, he served as Chief of Orthopedic Surgery and received numerous awards and commendations for both leadership and excellence in treating the musculoskeletal and sports injuries common among sailors and marines. The broad experience in sports medicine Dr. Galland received during his service in the Navy complemented the training he received at Tulane University in his home state of Louisiana.

Dr. Galland demonstrated an early affinity for the treatment of injured athletes during his residency training under renowned sports medicine specialist, Michael Brunet, M.D. The relationship between Dr. Galland and Dr. Brunet had a profound effect on his practice style and approach to complex sports injuries. Dr. Galland had abundant opportunity to refine that approach when he was selected to serve as assistant team physician to both the undefeated Tulane University football team and Tulane men’s basketball team. He also served as team physician to several local high schools and colleges, including Dillard and Xavier Universities.
Since joining Orthopaedic Specialists of North Carolina, Dr. Galland has continued his commitment and dedication to the treatment of injured athletes. 

He currently serves as team physician and Orthopaedic consultant to the Carolina Mudcats; medical director and orthopaedic consultant to the Louisburg College Athletic Program, and team physician/orthopaedic consultant to several area high schools.

Dr. Galland has authored many book chapters and papers in sports medicine. His advice and consultation have been sought by world-class athletes of track and field and Major League Baseball. His passion for resolving musculoskeletal ailments and injuries in the most conservative manner possible puts all his patients in the most capable and caring of hands.

What Our Patients Are Saying

{

In the last 4 weeks ,Dr Rion is the 4th doctor I have seen for this same problem and the only who has , in my opinion has taken the step to get to the root of my injury, which has gotten increasingly painful and unbearable over the last few weeks. GOOD JOB DOC.

Robert
{

Everything we discussed made such perfect sense. I am one week in on the keto diet lab. While not cold turkey, I see it and I feel it and I thank you so much. Michelle has actually changed my quality of life. I can’t say enough.

Billie
{

Dr. Watson is an excellent choice for all of your orthopedic needs. Most importantly, he is a great listener and involves you in the treatment process. His knowledge of orthopedics and even beyond his specialty is superior. He makes appropriate referrals when needed. I have never felt more confident being under a doctors care.

David
{

I believe he’s Doctor that cares about his patients and he’s a very smart and I believe he’s a very good person. I’m glad he’s my Doctor. Thank you!

Rudy
{

Dr. Rion is very professional and pleasant. He has been doing injections in both my knees for several years. When I have knee replacements, he will certainly be my surgeon of choice.

Sybal
{

Very attentive to my situation. Understood my concerns and made sure I accomplished all my tasks during my PT. Even suggested alternative crutches should I need them.

Pamela
{

I felt he was really great on explaining and the risk and helpful, because I really don’t care to take pain meds but I am lacking sleep so bad , he didn’t try to get me to take all day just something to help me get some much needed sleep.

Linda
{

Michelle took a lot of time in discussing my medical history and was so helpful in making suggestions and formulating a plan of action. I look forward to wishing with her!

Mary
{

THE BEST!!! Dr. Rion is a clear communicator he is concise and to the point and listens to my silly stories I will keep recommending people to him and can hardly wait for my knee replacement in December thanks Dr. Rion.

Loretta
{

Dr. Correa is easy going, and takes his time – he doesn’t make you feel like you are just a number, like so many other doctors out there. He has operated on my twice and I would never go elsewhere.
