Timothy P. Bryan, M.D.
Dr. Timothy P. Bryan, MD, is a board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon specializing in minimally invasive spine surgery at the Southeastern Spine Institute in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. A proud Charleston native, Dr. Bryan is thrilled to practice in his hometown, delivering advanced, less-invasive solutions that help patients recover faster, with smaller incisions, reduced pain, and shorter hospital stays.
Dr. Bryan earned his medical degree from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine and completed his orthopedic surgery residency at the University at Buffalo in New York. He further refined his expertise during a combined adult and pediatric spine fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, where he trained under internationally recognized leaders in complex spinal disorders.
Renowned for his proficiency in cutting-edge minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Bryan treats a wide spectrum of conditions often enabling patients to return home the same day or within 23 hours.
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Bryan has contributed to peer-reviewed research.
When he’s not in the operating room, Dr. Bryan can be found fly fishing the Lowcountry’s saltwater marshes.
Dr. Bryan is currently welcoming new patients at Southeastern Spine Institute.
