Tanner J. Foster, PA-C, joined Orthopedic Associates in June of 2025.
Tanner grew up in Fort Collins, CO, enjoying the beautiful outdoors through activities such as rock climbing, disc golfing, hiking, camping, and snowboarding. He attended college at the University of Colorado Boulder, where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. He discovered a passion for medicine while working as a nurse aide (CNA) for a home health agency during his senior year. He then went on to work as a CNA for a long-term acute care hospital for 1 year, followed by a job as a medical assistant (MA) in dermatology for 2 years.
Tanner moved to Knoxville, TN, in 2022, where he completed his Masters Degree in Physician Assistant Studies at South College. He discovered a love for orthopedic care during his clinical rotation in sports medicine.
Tanner is excited to be in Farmington, a town closer to home with many of the outdoor activities he loves. He looks forward to providing compassionate, high-quality care to our patients in collaboration with our team.
Tanner lives with his wife and their golden doodle (Chickie), both of whom also love to spend time in the great outdoors.
