Dr. Michael J. “Dusty” McCourt

Dr. Michael McCourt

Raised in Centralia, Washington, Dr. Michael McCourt was brought up to be a concert and jazz trombonist, yet yielded to his desires to adventure in his early twenties.  He did everything from being a lift operator in Vail, Colorado to joining the Army and serving as both an Airborne Artilleryman and a trombonist for the 82nd Airborne Band.

After this stint, he returned and finished undergraduate training in foreign language and outdoor recreation and then worked in the high mountain desert teaching adolescents wilderness survival skills.  It was during this time that he became interested in medicine.

In medical school he excelled academically and was a presidential scholar.  He graduated cum laude and did his residency training at one of the most highly regarded foot and ankle residencies in the country: Kaiser San Francisco.

Dr. Michael McCourt is board certified in Foot Surgery and Reconstructive Rearfoot Ankle Surgery by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery, a fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and an associate of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine.

He has lectured locally and nationally, including the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons annual scientific meeting, garnering an honorable mention for new research.  He has published peer-reviewed articles with topics including ankle arthroscopy, total ankle joint replacement and cement spacers for large segmental bone defects.

Dr. McCourt enjoys participating in endurance sports, especially cycling and running.  In medical school and through residency he would do at least a century ride (100 miles) once per year, with the longest being a double metric century (200km), and he and dabbled in triathalons.

More recently he has been running distances up to 50k, having completed the McKenzie River Ultramarathon and the Siskyou Outback 50k.  He spends his winter weekends on Alpine and Telemark skis for the Willamette Pass Ski Patrol … and daily loves spending time with his lovely wife and two children. He also collects unique automobiles.
