Dr. Tyson Cobb, certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, began his career at the Texas Tech School of Medicine. After graduating, he simultaneously completed his surgical residency and earned his MS in Biomedical Sciences at the renowned Mayo Clinic. Following these accomplishments, he obtained further expertise with a Fellowship in Hand, Upper Extremity and Microvascular Surgery at the University of Texas. He then relocated to the Davenport and Quad Cities area in 2000 to join an orthopaedic practice, where he served as the Director of the Hand and Upper Extremity Center. After almost 20 years, he has decided to open his own specialized practice, the Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist and Hand Center of Excellence with locations in Davenport and Clinton.

Dr. Cobb is frequently invited to lecture and instruct skilled surgeons from around the globe in the techniques and technology he has devoted his career to learning and developing. He is a member of several organizations, including the American Association for Hand Surgery, American Society for Surgery of the Hand, American Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery, American Society for Peripheral Nerve, and International Wrist Arthroscopy Society, where he has held the office of President. Dr. Cobb has been awarded for his work over the years for his presentations and research, and was even awarded “One of the best Hand and Upper Extremity Surgeons in America” in 2011, as well as the “Orthopedic Surgeon to Know” in 2018 by Becker’s Healthcare Review.

More than twelve years on faculty at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School has seen him promoted to rank of Associate Professor, publish more than 100 peer-reviewed papers, more than 30 chapters and lay-press articles, present more than 120 local, national, and international lectures, and mentor and teach countless students and surgical trainees. His research in the area of extremity trauma and transplantation has earned funding from the National Institutes of Health and United States Department of Defense. Within hospital administration, Talbot was elected to the position of Co-chair of the Physicians’ Council, representing Faculty on the Physician Organization Board.

His passion for healthcare improvement has led Talbot to co-found (with Wendy Dean MD), Moral Injury of Healthcare, a 501c3 non-profit. Through lecturing, workshops, consulting, a podcast, and book (“If I Betray These Words”), this organization’s goal is to mitigate physician distress, turnover, and burnout secondary to moral injury – the concept that supporting clinicians to take optimal care of patients is the path to success for individual physicians and healthcare organizations.
