Joseph J. Czarnecki, MD - Orthopedic Surgeon
I am an orthopaedic surgeon with additional sub-specialty training in sports medicine, and experience caring for the New England Patriots, Boston Red Sox and Boston Bruins. My practice includes all areas of sports medicine with particular interest in disorders of the shoulder, knee, and ankle.

My interest in shoulder conditions includes arthroscopic rotator cuff and instability repairs, and joint replacements. For the knee, my focus is on cartilage repair and ACL reconstruction. For the ankle my interests include the treatment of cartilage lesions, tendon injuries, instability and arthritis, including arthroscopic fusions.

My hobbies include striper and bass fishing, and playing sports and coaching my three sons.
