As I said before, he's the best! Years ago I was at a party and I asked one of the guests, an anesthesiologist, who was the best orthopedic doctor in Wilmington and she immediately replied "Dale Boyd." She was absolutely correct!

A board-certified orthopedic surgeon and fellowship-trained sports medicine specialist with a quarter of a century of experience in the region, Dale W. Boyd, Jr., MD focuses on sports medicine for athletes of all ages and competitive levels. He is highly experienced in treating injuries and conditions of the elbow, knee and lower limb, including knee and shoulder reconstructions and joint preservation through cutting-edge cartilage and ligament procedures.

Dr. Boyd graduated from Drexel University College of Medicine, completed his residency at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit, MI, and his fellowship in sports medicine at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine.
His inherent knowledge of high-level athletic participation stems from personal experience. He was an NCAA Division I college wrestler, as was his father.

Dr. Boyd was named the NCATA Sports Medicine Person of the Year in 2001 and was the team physician for the Wilmington Hammerheads professional soccer team from 1998 to 2007.
