Dr. Geddes is an Ohio native and an avid Buckeyes fan. He attended Ohio State University where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. While at Ohio State Dr. Geddes was the CoCaptain of the rowing team. He graduated cum laude with honors and was accepted to Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia. While in medical school Dr. Geddes was able to combine his two passions, patient care and innovation, resulting in two patented devices which are used in the operating room.
He was accepted into the Orthopaedic Surgery residency program at Yale University. He authored numerous journal articles and book chapters and presented at conferences during his residency. Dr. Geddes performed scoliosis surgeries on children with severe spinal deformities while on a mission trip in the Dominican Republic.

He had the privilege of training under both orthopaedic spine surgeons as well as neurosurgeons. Dr. Geddes was trained in a diverse set of surgical techniques during his fellowship, from large scoliosis surgery to minimally invasive techniques that utilize navigation and robotics.
