Dr. Kenneth Kearns is a Board Certified, Fellowship trained Shoulder & Elbow Orthopaedic Surgeon who specializes in arthroscopic surgical procedures, joint replacements, minimally invasive procedures, as well as upper extremity fracture care from the clavicle (collar bone) to the elbow.
Born and raised in Ohio, Dr. Kearns had a taste of the northeast during his orthopaedic training. After a few years in private practice in New York, Dr. Kearns returned to Philadelphia and joined the elite upper extremity physicians of Philadelphia Hand to Shoulder Center in April 2016. “I ventured to New York City after having completed my Orthopaedic Residency and Shoulder & Elbow Fellowship training in Philadelphia, but NYC never felt like home. My wife and I missed Philadelphia, and could not be happier to return and raise our family here.”
Dr. Kearns takes great pride in his bedside manner and ability to listen. “My mentors taught me that 90% of the diagnosis comes from listening to the patient. I strive to treat each patient as an individual and take the necessary time to fully understand the problem in order to implement my expertise and provide the best care possible.”Dr. Kearns’ focused and personal approach to medicine is appreciated by his patients and the physicians who consistently refer their patients to him for his treatment style and surgical expertise.
Dr. Kearns completed his undergraduate studies at Colby College in Maine and then returned home to attend The University of Toledo School of Medicine.
After medical school, Dr. Kearns entered the Orthopaedic Residency Program at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. While a resident, Dr. Kearns was not only recognized as a superb surgeon, but as a cutting edge research physician as well. During this time, he received recognition and awards by both the Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation and the Pennsylvania Orthopaedic Society. He also was the recipient of the Jerome M. Cotler, MD & Philip J. Marone, MD Award, which is granted to one resident each year for demonstrating outstanding excellence in leadership.
Lastly, Dr. Kearns fine tuned his skills at the internationally renowned Thomas Jefferson University Hospital/Rothman Institute Shoulder & Elbow Orthopaedic Fellowship Program.
