He specializes in treatment and prevention of sports, spine and musculoskeletal related injuries.
He serves as head team physician for Post 22 American Legion Baseball, various local high schools, PRCA Rodeos, and Spearfish Sasquatch Baseball Team.
Dr. Sole is a Registered Musculoskeletal Sonographer (RMSK) and teaches musculoskeletal ultrasound and regenerative medicine (orthobiologic) techniques to fellow physicians around the country. His research involvement has produced multiple publications and presentations on sports related injuries and musculoskeletal ultrasound. He continues to be involved in educating residents and medical students as clinical assistant professor for the University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine.
Dr. Sole has specialized training in diagnostic & interventional musculoskeletal ultrasound, which he uses to provide precise, minimally invasive treatments, like platelet-rich-plasma, bone marrow stem cells, prolotherapy, and traditional injection procedures for muscle, joint, nerve, tendon, and ligament injuries. He also has unique training experience with the newly developed TENEX F.A.S.T. procedure, which uses ultrasound-guidance to provide minimally invasive treatments for chronic tendinopathies, such as lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), medial epicondylitis (golfers' elbow), rotator cuff tendonitis and plantar fasciitis.
He is trained in comprehensive, non-surgical spine care, including image-guided spine and pain procedures. He also performs concussion management and electrodiagnostic medicine for neurological injuries. During residency, Dr. Sole worked to establish a concussion surveillance program through multiple departments at the Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Sole treats everyone from elite athletes to weekend warriors. He cares for everything that physically limits a persons participation, function or quality of life, from acute sports injuries to those suffering with long-term pain. In his free time, he is active in Cross-Fit, golf, outdoor recreation, church activities and enjoys spending time with his wife, children and family dog.
