History of the practice

Birch Tree Foot and Ankle Specialists was founded by Dr. Randy Hartman and Dr. Daniel Lathrop in 1992 in Traverse City, Michigan. Drs. Hartman and Lathrop were two of the first surgically trained podiatric physicians in the Traverse City area. Collectively, Drs. Hartman and Lathrop provided (number of) years of medical care to the Northern Michigan community.

In July of 2019, Dr. Lathrop retired, and he and Dr. Hartman transferred ownership of the practice to Dr. Jeffrey Weber. Dr Hartman retired in 2022. Dr Weber now sees patients in the Traverse City location and maintains hospital and surgical privileges at Munson Medical Center and Copper Ridge Surgery Center.
