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.

He is extremely knowledgeable, excellent bed side manner and a huge proponent of Quad saving full knee replacement with robotic assisted Stryker. Communication with his team was seamless and yes the surgery pre & post was seamless. Can say enough about Dr. D and his team. I had an issue a few days after surgery that landed on a weekend and there was a human being on the other end of the phone that immediately got my message to the PA who called to assist me. Dr D also called me twice post surgery to check in. Here is the kicker….I had a full knee replacement and I have a 4 inch scar…not 10-12 inch scar and there was no cutting into my Quads. We were provided a step by step checklist to follow that was very helpful pre surgery requirements. Minimally invasive surgery resulted in a much quicker healing process.
Excellent caring doctor
