Dr Alessandro is a true professional in every sense. From introduction to post-op care he is always there to answer any question, consider all options, prepare patients for the unknown, help them through the healing transition, and get them back on their feet and in the game again. Staying abreast of evolutions in technology he offers the best treatments and the best results.

Dr. Alessandro takes the time to listen carefully, answers all of my questions with patience and clarity. He has done surgery on me in the past and I’ve had exceptional results. After shoulder surgery I got back to swimming 1 mile, 3 to 4 days a week .. all strokes and no pain. This time a knee issue which he took care of without surgery. Dr. Alessandro is compassionate and knowledgeable. I trust his judgements. Highly recommend!

I am an orthopaedic surgeon with additional fellowship training in the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder. My goal is to restore optimal function of the injured limb. I achieve this objective by utilizing the latest in operative and non-operative techniques. My practice includes trauma care, arthritis and joint replacement, sports medicine, and arthroscopic surgery of the wrist, elbow, shoulder, and knee. My extensive hand and upper extremity training allows me to treat complex disorders in this area as well. I enjoy caring for patients of all ages. My hobbies include sports, cooking, and reading about history.
