Dr. Ismar Dizdarevic and his dedicated team focus on minimally invasive hip and knee replacement as well as revision hip and knee replacement. Less invasive surgery such as the MIRA Knee Replacement (TM), direct anterior hip approach, partial knee replacement, and outpatient same day surgery coupled with innovative pain management allows patients to achieve earlier return to function. The surgeries are done through less than 4 inch incisions. By preserving the structure and function of the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, patients experience a more natural feeling joint replacement and avoid traditional restrictions following surgery.
Dr. Dizdarevic completed his orthopaedic training in NYC at Mount Sinai Roosevelt Hospital Center with subspecialty focus at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Columbia Presbyterian Department of Bioengineering, CV Starr Hand Institute, and the A.I. Dupont Institute for Children. During this time, he published numerous scientific articles focusing on the treatment of musculoskeletal health. He was also awarded the Gold Humanism and Excellence in Resident Teaching Award by the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons and acted as Chief Resident during his final year.
Dr. Dizdarevic chose to spend an extra year to complete fellowship training in hip and knee replacement at the prestigious Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, IL, where he learned alongside the country's foremost authorities on revision hip and knee replacement and minimally invasive surgery.
On a personal note, Dr. Dizdarevic grew up in North Jersey and is extremely proud to bring his expertise back to the community which supported him during his training. In his spare time, he enjoys snowboarding, cycling, snorkeling, and spending time with his family.

Totally happy with his knowledge and pleased so far with my surgery
I had total knee replacement, I'm 3 months post surgery & about 85% back. Dr Dizdarevic is excellent!
Excellent experience with Dr. Dizdarevic. He took the time to explain my condition to me in detail and what I can do to feel better and improve. I am very happy with my visit and grateful for his time and expertise. Highly recommend.
Dr. D did such an amazing job!! I couldn’t be any happier with the whole experience, and I can walk normally again. I had forgotten how good that feels. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs a hip replacement.
Excellent doctor!!!!
Two surgeries ( both hips) one emery (dislocation) and I would never need a second opinion! He’s brilliant and kind. If there were 10🌟🌟🌟he would certainly be deserving
I likes the doctor’s personality. Didn’t feel rushed.
