About Dr. Kampfer:

Craig Kampfer spent his formative years on a small farm in Ohio where his family raised beef cattle and baled hay. Growing up, he played sports and showed livestock in 4-H. He continued his academic and athletic career at the University of Charleston in West Virginia where he played football and graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's in biology. He went on to accept a Health Professions Scholarship with the United States Army and attended medical school at Northeast Ohio Medical University.

He started his military service in San Antonio, where he completed his orthopedic residency at Brooke Army Medical Center. During residency, Dr. Kampfer and his wife lived in Schertz and dreamed of putting down permanent roots in the area with their two young boys. His post-residency assignment was at Fort Hood, where he served as the orthopedic clinic OIC at Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center and deployed to Syria in support of Operation Inherent Resolve. After fulfilling his Army commitment, he completed a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction at the Minnesota Center for Orthopedics in Crosby, Minnesota. Dr. Kampfer then joined TSAOG Orthopaedics & Spine to have the opportunity to live in and serve the communities of South Texas.
