- Bio
- Noel Henley, MD was born and raised in Fayetteville, Arkansas. He graduated from the University of Arkansas with a degree in chemical engineering and went on to earn his medical degree from the University of Tennessee College of Medicine in Memphis. After completing his training in orthopaedic surgery at Indiana University in Indianapolis, Dr. Henley stayed on to complete an additional year of fellowship training in hand, upper extremity, and microsurgery at the Indiana Hand Center.
Excited to return to his hometown, Dr. Henley joined Ozark Orthopaedics in 2007 and practices in Fayetteville. He enjoys combining his knowledge of physics and anatomy to help educate patients on their orthopaedic problems and potential solutions. As an upper extremity specialist, he particularly enjoys the variety in his specialty as he treats patients of all ages with a wide range of problems. His clinical and surgical interests include comprehensive surgery of the upper extremity (fingertips to shoulder), microsurgical reconstruction, trauma, arthritis, nerve compression, on-the-job injuries, sports-related injuries, and pediatrics.
