About Dr. Kruer
Justin J. Kruer, M.D. is an anesthesiologist and a fellowship-trained pain management physician with over a decade of experience. Dr. Kruer served as a Beacon Orthopaedics’ physician from 2013 to 2019 and returned in 2022 after working at Missoula Bone & Joint in Missoula, Montana.
Dr. Kruer attended The University of Notre Dame for his undergraduate studies and completed medical school at the University of Louisville. He completed an internal medicine residency at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Phoenix, Arizona. After Phoenix, he went on to complete an anesthesia residency at the University of Kentucky before becoming a pain medicine fellow at Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona in 2007.
Dr. Kruer’s goal with pain management has always been to allow his patients to be in charge of their pain and not have the pain in charge of them. He works with his patients to get them back to work or play as quickly as possible while avoiding the dependence and potential addiction of chronic opioids.
In his previous time with Beacon Orthopaedics, Dr. Kruer was named to the Cincinnati Magazine’s Top Doctors List every year from 2015 to 2019.
Dr. Kruer is excited to be living back in the Greater Cincinnati area with his wife, Kira, and their four children. He is also happy to continue serving the Northern Kentucky area, holding clinic at Beacon Orthopaedics’ Fort Thomas location.
