Dr. Eric Szczesniak born and raised in the Midwest, fellowship-trained and board-certified joint replacement and revision surgeon joined Lakeshore Bone & Joint Institute in 2016. He offers first-time hip and knee replacements, complex primary joint replacements, joint preserving procedures, partial knee replacements, and revision joint replacement.
Wanting a career focused on the service of others, Dr. Szczesniak attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in Champaign, Illinois, for his undergraduate education. Much of that early education was spent in engineering courses. While attending Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois, his mechanical background and engineering passion led him to an orthopedic surgery specialty.
Dr. Szczesniak continued his training through an orthopedic surgery residency at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, Illinois. There, he developed a strong interest in total joint replacement, which proved to be the ideal field to combine a highly technical engineering proficiency with the ability to improve a patient’s quality of life. Dr. Szczesniak then completed his fellowship at the Rubin Institute for Advanced Orthopedics in Baltimore, Maryland, where he learned from the most challenging cases and honed his skills.
In his free time, friends and family are a priority, but he still finds time for his interest in aviation and related hobbies as well as running to stay active.

Outstanding . Kind mannerisms, extremely intelligent surgeon. He did a TKR recently on my one knee… total success. In few months , he will be trusted to do my other.
He listens. Answers all questions. He is patient. He explains in layman’s terms. I cannot think of a negative. I’ve seen him 4 times in office for my bad hips so far. I saw him every day there. I will return to him for my 2nd Hip replacement.
I was pleased that he explained everything to me about my total hip surgery in terms I could understand.
Doctor did my left total hip replacement 3 years ago, and now planning the right one. I trust him.
Very friendly and caring Dr. A++++++
Very smart,caring and a great empathetic Dr. Thankyou! Nannette
Dr. Szczesniak is always very thorough in his explanation of my husband’s case. He always asks if we have questions.
Upfront & honest
Love this doctor
My appt with Dr Szczesniak was above my expectations. He was so kind, personable, and attentive. He gave of his time and showed care and compassion, as well as putting a plan together for my care. I would double his stars, especially after seeing another Dr at LSBJ that could take instruction on patient relationship from Dr Szczesniak
