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.

The best!
I was apprehensive about seeing a new Dr. but I have to say Dr. Ismar Dizdarevic made me feel at ease. Made sure I understood what he was talking about and suggested things to help improve my mobility.
He always listens and explains everything clearly.
I recommend everyone to skip HSN or HSS and to come and see Dr Dizdarevic. He is kind , knowledgeable, patient, understanding, he listens to what you have to say. The surgery was flawless. No post op complications . He is a master at his craft in the operating room and in the office. He sets the standard , so much so I am looking forward to any further surgeries. I wish I went to Ridgewood Orthopedic Group instead of the other places and been better sooner.
Explained everything thoroughly. Answered all my questions. Extremely pleasant and easy to talk to.
Just a wonderful Doctor! I highly recommend him too anyone looking for an orthopedic surgeon

Dr D is a wonderful, skilled surgeon, who takes his time to explain and answer any questions. My quality of life has truly improved with the hip replacement he recently performed.
Dr Dizdarevic is an incredible orthopedic surgeon. He is an expert in his field. And he is kind considerate and explains to his patients exactly what he is going to do. I had a total knee replacement . No swelling! Pain was kept under control. Driving, walking and shopping 4 weeks later
