Dr. Lopez practices general orthopedic surgery and has a particular interest in hand and upper extremity conditions, including fractures, nerve problems, torn tendons, and cartilage injuries.

He also uses other types of injections for conditions like Dupuytren’s disease and knee arthritis. For conditions such as Carpal Tunnel, Cubital Tunnel Syndrome, Thumb Basal joint arthritis surgery, Tennis Elbow, and Rotator Cuff problems, he uses arthroscopic surgery or small incision techniques.
He is a member of multiple medical organizations, including the American Academy of orthopedic surgeons, the Florida Medical Association, American Medical Association and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
Dr. Lopez enjoys participating in endurance sports such as triathlons and marathons. He has run in both the Boston and the New York City Marathons and competed in several Triathlons. He enjoys spending time with his family traveling, biking, running, and swimming in his spare time.

Very professional
Great interest in results from my nerve surgeries and good next steps.
Waited in waiting room for one hour and five minutes then waited in office approximately ten minutes before seeing him . He spent approximately ten minutes with me and suggested I make a appointment with another Dr in that practise and ordered a medication that I tried before and said it didn't work for me. When I went out to make the appointment for the other Dr I was told by the receptionist that I couldn't just make a appointment with that Dr as it had to be approved by the clinic. I said Dr Lopez ordered it. She said it would still have to be approved. I felt this visit was a waste of my time!
Very compassionate, and kind, notpushy
