Dr. Wells grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and completed his undergraduate training at Liberty University. His medical degree is from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, where he graduated in the top percentage of his class. He stayed in the Northeast to train with many of the nation’s top surgeons, completing a residency in Orthopedic Surgery at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. Additionally, he completed a research fellowship at the renowned Rothman Orthopaedic Institute to improve orthopedic care through research.
Dr. Wells is a member of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS), and the American Osteopathic Academy of Orthopedics (AOAO).
Dr. Wells has published numerous articles in various peer-reviewed journals, including the prestigious Journal of Arthroplasty. He has received awards for his research and presented at conferences at the local, regional, and national levels.
Dr. Wells’ treatment philosophy is to exhaust all nonsurgical options before considering surgical intervention. He listens to his patients and believes strongly that it is the key to achieving the best outcomes. His desire is to help restore and maintain an active lifestyle for all of his patients.
His favorite thing outside of orthopedics is being at the beach with friends and family. He is a die-hard Philadelphia sports fan. The rest of his time is spent training and teaching mixed martial arts, with a particular focus on wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Spoke very clearly so that I understood what he was telling me. He was gentle and thorough. He settled my nerves.
Excellent
I so appreciated the fact that he asked for my input about my son’s knee before ordering a bunch of extra testing.
The best Dr . On the planet!!!
Very personable and he patiently listened to my concerns. Staff is awesome as well.
Very kind and caring person. He listens and responds to what you say. You are not a textbook case. And there is a wonderful staff at his office.
He's one of the best doctors I've ever had . I love him.
Amazing! Had an issue with knee replacement and being a younger doctor “in the know” replaced with a newer technique. Wouldn’t go to anyone else!
If I could give him more than 5 stars, I would. Dr. Wells feels like family and he is warm and caring, even if the news is not too good. He makes you know that he is on the team looking for the best outcome possible.
He is very caring. Takes time to answer questions and concerns.
