Dr. Christopher Jobe

Christopher Jobe, M.D., R.M.S.K., joined Oroville Hospital’s orthopedic surgery team in 2017.  Dr. Jobe received his medical degree from the Baylor College of Medicine in 1975 and completed a residency in orthopedic surgery at Duke University. He also pursued fellowship training in sports medicine to advance his knowledge and skill. He is board certified and spent more than 30 years performing orthopedic surgeries at Loma Linda University Medical Center.

Dr. Jobe specializes in shoulder and knee surgery, diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound and sports injuries. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is an advanced non-invasive technique, which allows physicians to diagnose soft-tissue abnormalities such as carpal tunnel, rotator cuff tears, bursitis or shoulder dislocations. While many physicians use this procedure to aid injection placement, diagnostic ultrasound requires experience to clearly detect structural and dynamic abnormalities if visible by ultrasound.
