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.
As busy as the office was, everyone was friendly and helpful! Dr Szczesniak is fantastic and answered all my questions so that I understood them. I never felt that I was rushed!!
Everything was fine, except for the receptionist lady made me stand there waiting 10 minutes while she had a personal conversation with a lady. I thought she was very rude.
Very confident and efficient doctor. He is knowledgeable of his work and gets the job done in a timely manner. I will definitely be a return.
Very informative and dedicated in solving issues
Just wish it wasn’t a month long wait for hip injections
He's always on time and my apptmnts are to the point! Always good information too
Top notch, hopefully I can get my other knee done next year if God say the same
Takes his time and answers all questions
Friendly but Dr is too rushed for proper attention to patient. My mother is over 90 & is not quick to respond or comprehend what is being said. Dr did not examine to find where knee pain was & gave shot anywhere. Not targeted care provided. Emily felt around where the pain was.
Knowledgeable, friendly and no nonsense. Highly recommend.
