About YASER EL-GAZZAR, MD – NEW EDGE ORTHOPEDICS, LLC

Yaser El-Gazzar, MD, has been in practice since 2012. He is licensed to practice medicine in multiple states. He completed his medical education at Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia and went on to complete his Orthopedic Surgery residency at Albert Einstein Medical College/Montefiore Medical Center in New York City.

To further add to his training, he went on to complete Subspecialty Fellowship Training in Orthopedic Sports Medicine/ Joint Preservation Surgery at the Prestigious Hughston Foundation in Georgia where he contributed to the care of many athletes from professional athletes to local High School athletes to the Weekend Warrior.

Specialization:

Yaser El-Gazzar, MD’s practice is quite vast as he enjoys taking care of all patients of all walks of life from General Orthopedics to Trauma/Fracture Care to his subspecialty focus of Sports Medicine/Joint Preservation Surgery of both adults and older pediatric to adolescent patients.

One of his passions is his focus on Joint Preservation, both Non-operative and Operative care. “Joint Preservation is this evolving, exciting, facet of Orthopedic Sports Medicine that is truly focused on preserving the joints of patients, preventing the development of arthritis as much as possible. Each patient requires a custom-tailored treatment plan that is truly created for each individual patient factoring in the patient’s severity and location of injury/damage, lifestyle, activity level, occupation, and goals. We are able to use the developments in the field of Joint Preservation to deliver multiple treatment options. For example, for an isolated cartilage injury in an athlete’s knee, ranging in invasiveness from lifestyle modification and core strengthening to PRP and stem cell injections to cartilage transplants of many different forms to re-alignment procedures, all with the common goal of alleviating pain and restoring function/activity. We also have the added benefit of delaying the development of arthritis significantly, with some procedures eliminating that dreaded development completely.” Dr. El-Gazzar explains.

Dr. El-Gazzar says, “I consider myself so fortunate to have the privilege of helping patients from all walks of life and all levels of sports participation/involvement to return to sports and eliminate pain/disability. I really do love my job and the relationships that we develop together with patients as they successfully return to their activities and sports.”

Keeping in mind that surgery is truly the last option after all conservative treatments have failed, Dr. El-Gazzar specializes in all forms of Joint Preservation/Cartilage Restoration/Sports Medicine Surgery including minimally invasive surgical techniques such as Hip Arthroscopy, Elbow Arthroscopy, Wrist Arthroscopy, Ankle Arthroscopy, and Knee Arthroscopy. Joint Preservation surgical treatments specific to the knee include Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (aka: MACI procedure), Autograft Cartilage Transplants (for smaller cartilage injuries), Allograft Cartilage Transplants (for the larger cartilage injuries), multiple ligament reconstructions including ACL and PCL, meniscus repair and transplants, realignment procedures (for example high tibial osteotomy), to name a few. Many of the minimally invasive procedures as mentioned above can be applied to any of the other joints in the body especially when considering cartilage transplants/restoration procedures. He also enjoys fracture care and general orthopedic surgery.

One of the unique aspects of Yaser El-Gazzar, MD’s approach to treating patients is his understanding of what the patients are experiencing that it has helped him develop an ability to communicate effectively with patients not only to understand their diagnosis and treatment options but also to helping them play an active role in deciding and facilitating those treatment options. This ability stems from his own personal experiences being a patient, having undergone 7 major surgeries in his lifetime starting at a very young age. It’s this personal experience that has helped him develop his reputation as being relatable and approachable with excellent bedside manner. His patients feel that he is actually listening to their complaints and effectively answers all of their questions in a manner that is truly understood by the patient.

“I believe that the strongest tool we have at our disposal as orthopedic surgeons is the successful recruitment of the patient as a member of their own treatment team. When the patient is an invested part of the team coordinating their own treatment and understands everything from the diagnosis to the goals of treatment and realistic expectations of treatment, successful treatment and restoration of function /activity are much easier to reach.”, says Dr. El-Gazzar.

No wonder that Dr. El-Gazzar won the prestigious ThreeBestRated® award in Orthopedics. He has numerous other awards and honors to his name, but just as for our other amazing recipient physicians, it is his patients’ love for him and the practice that truly earned him our Award.
