• Conduct thorough patient consultations to evaluate medical history and current health status.
• Order and analyze diagnostic tests, including X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans.
• Formulate and execute treatment plans for orthopaedic patients, incorporating both surgical and non-surgical methods.
• Perform surgical procedures related to the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
• Monitor patient recovery and modify treatment plans as needed.

• Possession of a valid medical license, with the ability to obtain a Pennsylvania license.

• Ability to thrive in a collaborative private practice environment.

We take pride in being a successful, physician-owned practice for nearly 46 years, providing a comprehensive range of musculoskeletal care in our region. Our structure allows each physician to develop their practice with significant autonomy.

Our team consists of 10 fellowship-trained orthopaedic specialists and 17 skilled physician assistants. We also employ 22 physical therapists and 4 certified hand therapists, offering extensive outpatient rehabilitation services, including aquatic therapy.

Additionally, we have an orthotist on staff for brace and orthotic fittings, as well as an on-site specialist for EMG and nerve conduction studies. Our facilities are equipped with office ultrasound, X-ray capabilities, and we offer Platelet Rich Plasma Injection Therapy among other services.

We operate walk-in Ortho Urgent Care Centers for emergency visits and direct referrals, with five office locations in the Pittsburgh suburbs.

We prefer candidates who are interested in providing general orthopaedic care as well. As an independent practice, we accept all major insurances and maintain a healthy payer mix. Our practice is primarily elective, with minimal on-call emergency coverage and no level I trauma. The call schedule is 1:9, offering excellent hours and competitive benefits.
