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.

Very attentive, professional and thorough orthopedist. Highly recommended!!
I appreciated the doctors explanation of the x rays and his direction on how to treat my condition.
Personal and Professional. Dr. D. Is a knowledgeable and highly skilled surgeon.
So far, so good. This was an initial consultation and assessment of my injury. Dr. D was knowledgeable, confident, and thorough. I will get an MRI next week and hear back a few days after that.
Explained in detail results of tests. Listened to my concerns and recommended great solutions.
Exemplary experience being treated by Dr. Dizdarevic!
I limped into the exam room & saw Dr. Dizdarevic. He was invested in the exam & I truly felt his empathy for my pain. He drained the fluid off my knees & gave me cortisone shots. I felt almost instant relief & walked out better than I walked in. I think he is a patient oriented physician & a credit to his industry.
Excellent QA session with the doc, much appreciated insight into my knee issues. Felt very comfortable and received solid advice and direction.
Wonderful Bed Side Maner, made me feel very safe and comfortable.
Very kind and knowledgeable
