Dr. Howard Katz is an orthopedic surgeon dedicated to providing his patients with personalized, comprehensive, and rehabilitative care. With over 22 years as a practicing physician, he is skilled in mitigating pain and discomfort, nonoperatively, as well as before and after surgery.
Dr. Katz is also an expert in minimally invasive, small incision joint replacement, as well as post traumatic reconstruction.
Dr. Katz welcomes bariatric patients and believes that overweight people deserve a comfortable ambulatory existence.
As a father, the care of children is a priority. As a son, the care of seniors is a privilege. Dr. Katz takes a conservative approach in using nonoperative treatment as often as possible. He works closely with a team of local physical therapists who, like he, believe in conservative methods. Dr. Katz treats patients with respect and informs them of every treatment option in an easy to understand language.
