Excel is pleased to welcome Dr. Lauren K. Szolomayer, MD to our practice! Dr. Szolomayer joined Excel in September 2019 and is accepting new patients!
I grew up nearby in the Boston suburbs. I earned my undergraduate degree from Princeton University in mechanical and aerospace engineering and worked for several years designing satellites at Boeing before starting medical school at Tufts University. I then went on to complete an orthopaedic surgery residency at Yale University. During my Sports Medicine fellowship at the University of Connecticut, I trained with some of the most-well known surgeons in the field. I specialized in treating a wide range of sports injuries and cared for elite Division 1 athletes.
My clinical interests include arthroscopic treatment of knee and shoulder injuries, treatment of patellofemoral disorders, knee ligament reconstructive procedures, meniscus repairs, shoulder injuries, and joint replacement as well as fracture care.
Outside of work, I enjoy running, soccer, skiing and triathlons.

She is always so personable and nice. Never rushes you or makes you feel like she doesn’t have time. Very knowledgeable and professional! Very thorough in her diagnosis. I’ve recommended her many times
if I didn't have to wait over in hour in the waiting room I think this review would be remarkably different.
Dr Szolomayer is the best
Doctor Szolomayer went over everything with me, she answered my questions and I did not feel rushed. Zack was also great. I was nervous going on but I really had a great experience.
First visit. Very happy with her knowledge and kindness. Will be back. 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Informative, clear, smart, answered all my questions. Feeling very comfortable and confident moving forward with this surgeon.
I waited an hour and 10 minutes for my appointment between the waiting room and exam room before seeing the doctor
Friendly, responsive to my questions and very thorough in her explanations.
This doctor is wonderful! She explained the surgery so well and was very kind to our daughter. The ACL surgery was a success. I highly recommend Dr. Szolomayer
Dr. Szolomayer is absolutely top notch. I’ve worked with her on a couple of issues, and she is incredibly attentive, thorough and knowledgeable.
