Dr. Blevins completed fellowship training in hand, shoulder, and full upper extremity surgery at Emory University in Atlanta, where he trained at Grady Memorial Hospital—the busiest Level I trauma center in the United States—and developed advanced skills in treating complex and traumatic upper limb injuries. He also trained internationally at Hôpital Ambroise Paré in Paris, France, where he refined cutting-edge shoulder reconstruction techniques under world-renowned upper extremity surgeons.
He has expertise in advanced wrist arthroscopy, shoulder instability, and complex shoulder reconstruction. His approach blends surgical precision, innovation, and a patient-centered focus to help patients of all activity levels restore function and return to the lives they love.
Outside of medicine, Dr. Blevins enjoys time with his wife and two sons, strength training, writing music, and exploring longevity and wellness. He finds joy at the beach and takes pride in giving back to the Central Pennsylvania community that first inspired his path in medicine.
Testimonials
What Patients Are Saying
I loved Dr Blevins. Very kind and understanding. Took time to listen and didn’t mess me around. Total shoulder replacement, one week out. Can’t wait to see outcome. Also had a great sense of humor.

I was seen at OSS Urgent Care after a fall in which I broke my wrist. The break was confirmed and a brace was placed and I was referred to Dr. Blevin a week later. At this appt. Dr. Blevin looked at my wrist and advised me to continue with the brace but add some time with it off for exercises. He set an appt. 4 weeks later to get X-rays and see how the bone is healing. He was pleasant and seemed to be knowledgeable about the wrist.
