Dr. Nicholas Dirig is board-certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Orthopedic Surgery and fellowship-trained in Adult Reconstruction. For Dr. Dirig, there’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a patient who could barely move due to hip or knee pain, walking the morning after surgery.

“When I was 15, my single mother had to have her knee replacement redone and I was allowed to get my drivers license early so I could drive her to her doctor appointments. It was at that time that I knew medicine, and in particular Orthopedics, was my calling. I wanted to understand why her first knee replacement failed and what could be done to prevent it. I’ve always had a passion for building and tinkering with things and using my hands, so throughout my medical training, Orthopedics was a natural fit. For me, there’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a patient who could barely move due to hip or knee pain, walking the morning after surgery! Like most of my patients, I enjoy staying active and being outdoors. Cycling, hiking, skiing, triathlons, and traveling keep me plenty busy outside of medicine!”

Dr. Dirig is awesome.
Dr. Dirig, was very nice and explained things in a way that my teenage soon understood. He never made us feel rushed and took the time to answer our questions and concerns. He even answered some of my concerns about my forearm when we were there for my son’s appointment. Would highly recommend him!
Friendly, very calming bedside manner. Very descriptive when talking about the surgery. One if the nicest doctors I've ever been to. Looking forward to my new hips.
I work with him sometimes at the hospital. He’s very friendly, helpful and patience with new people in his room. He is an around nice, good friendly person and surgeon. He’s does an excellent job in surgery. I highly recommend him.
