Dr. Meredith Osterman grew up in Philadelphia and was exposed to the art of hand surgery and the beauty of the human hand at an early age. She believes that the hands reveal a great deal about a person and his or her journey. “Every wrinkle, callus or scar tells a story. We greet each other with a handshake, we communicate with hand gestures, and we hold the hand of a loved-one in pain– hands not only allow us to accomplish activities of daily living but also they allow us to connect and communicate with one another. The loss of one’s ability to use his or her hands can be physically and emotionally devastating."
Inspired by her father, Dr. Lee Osterman, and her personal experiences as an orthopaedic patient, Dr. Osterman entered medicine to pursue her study of the upper extremities. She believes that "the greatest part about being a physician is the ability to help and heal her patients.” She treats every patient with compassion and strives to include each in the understanding and treatment of his or her injury or condition.
Dr. Osterman is also a dedicated wife and the proud mother of three. She enjoys skiing, board games, traveling, and building LEGO castles and cardboard-box forts with her children.

Diagnosed and addressed on the spot
Best doctor ever love her
Efficient, friendly, professional!
All staff and dr were fantastic. Professional and friendly
Dr. Osterman operated on my hand for carpal tunnel and I cannot say enough nice things about her and her office staff. She did a fantastic job on my hand and everything she told me pre op was true. I was able to go back to work in 48 hours and I have full use of my hand less than two weeks after surgery. I would recommend her to anyone that needs carpal tunnel surgery.
She listens and explains everything.
I was referred to her by a friend and I would now do the same. Meredith and the whole team at Glen Mills are great.
Wonderful Dr. really listens and cares.
