Orthopaedic Surgeons & Leadership

The joint surgeons surgeons at the Kaplan Center for Joint Reconstruction Surgery are board-certified orthopaedic surgeons trained in the latest minimally invasive surgical techniques. Patients come from communities throughout the Greater Boston area to receive care from a center with a higher percentage of attending-level physicians than many other health care institutions. In addition to hip surgery and knee surgery our orthopaedic surgeons are trained in a variety of other joint surgery procedures.

Patients also have their concerns addressed 24 hours a day, seven days a week by an attending-level orthopaedic surgeon from our Joint Center. The 24-hour Maxwell Blum Emergency Pavilion also has attending-level care available around the clock, seven days a week.
