A native of Oak Ridge, Chad Smalley was a three-sport letterman at Centre College in Kentucky, graduating Phi Beta Kappa and Magna Cum Laude. He attended University of Tennessee Health Science Center, College of Medicine, where he graduated with Honors in 2000. A five-year residency in orthopaedics took him to West Virginia University, where he trained at a Level 1 Trauma Center, while serving as chief resident. Dr. Smalley is fellowship-trained in arthroscopy and sports medicine having completed an additional year of training in San Francisco while serving as a team doctor for the San Francisco Giants. As a board-elegible orthopaedist specializing in shoulder arthroscopy and sports medicine, Dr. Smalley is delighted to return to his home state to join the Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics. He now resides in downtown Chattanooga. “My training in arthroscopy and sports medicine has prepared me to work with some of this area’s best and brightest athletes; however, it has also prepared me to work with patients who come to the Center with some of the most severe injuries imaginable. Working together, we get our patients back on the playing field and back into daily routines - and both are equally important.”
