We drive 6 hours, and only see Dr Adler for 5 minutes or less. I have neuropathy so bad, and never get any help or suggestions on what to do to make it better. Wish Dr would take more time to address this issue.

From Dr. Adler I was always fascinated with science and anatomy as a student growing up. My first exposure with orthopedics was after I suffered an injury in high school that required surgery and rehabilitation. I was lucky enough to be referred to the team at Orthopedic Institute and felt they delivered the gold standard of care. From reception, X-ray, nursing, PA, surgeon and therapist, I felt that every one of them cared about me as a person. They worked as a team to provide the best possible care to get me back to health. That was my first exposure to orthopedics and I was hooked with the specialty.
I LOVE what I do. Working at Orthopedic Institute is not a job for me. It is an incredible opportunity to be able to provide care to patients that have faith and trust in their surgeon. I greatly appreciate the opportunity to care for people.
About Dr. Adler Dr. Adler provides general orthopedics, specializing in hip and knee replacement. He trained in joint replacement at the Mayo Clinic and then furthered his education in joint reconstruction at the Florida Orthopedic Institute with an entire year dedicated to minimally invasive hip and knee reconstruction.
He specializes in anterior hip replacement. The approach to the surgery does not cut muscle and therefore reduces healing time. He also specializes in minimally invasive knee replacement. New advances in technology have improved knee replacement to feel more natural with better biomechanics. Hip and knee replacements can wear out over time and need to be revised. He enjoys performing these complex and difficult cases. In addition, Dr. Adler performs sports medicine, including knee arthroscopy with ACL and ligament reconstruction.
Dr. Adler teaches and speaks on a national level about hip and knee reconstruction. This has allowed him to interact and learn from some of the greatest minds in orthopedics today as they share insights on new technology and techniques. He has also contributed to implant and instrument design.
The majority of Dr. Adler’s free time is spent with his family. He and his wife keep busy with their children’s school and athletic activities including basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, wakeboarding, skiing, and snowboarding. He takes every opportunity to coach when he can and loves spending time outdoors
