Upstate Orthopedics is affiliated with the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Our practice is located at the Upstate Bone & Joint Center, the only state-of-the-art specialty center for comprehensive orthopedic care in Syracuse, New York.

We are a specialty-driven orthopedic practice.

We have a group of highly experienced orthopedic surgeons, each having expertise in one or more subspecialties of orthopedic surgery. All of our doctors, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners have the highest level of training in their field. They are also involved in academics and research within the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at SUNY Upstate, making Upstate Orthopedics the most advanced orthopedic group in Central New York.

There is a constant flow of orthopedic residents practicing alongside our surgeons, resulting in more time spent focusing on individual patients, and a consistent, proven, hands-on experience to produce top-of-the-line orthopedic surgeons from the Syracuse area.

No matter what the problem is, we have a surgeon with the right expertise.

We offer consultations, evaluations, and treatment for the full spectrum of orthopedic conditions, including sports medicine, pediatric orthopedics, hand and wrist microsurgery, upper extremity surgery, orthopedic oncology, adult and pediatric spine surgery, foot and ankle surgery, joint replacement/reconstruction, and orthopedic trauma.

Upstate Orthopedics serves all of Central New York.

Although we are located in Onondaga County, patients travel from a 15-county region to Upstate Orthopedics because of our level of expertise in all orthopedic specialties at a single destination. In fact, many orthopedic specialists in the Syracuse community refer to our surgeons for complex orthopedic care that requires the specialized expertise Upstate Orthopedics is known for.
