The Record profiled New Jersey native and orthopedic surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery, Dr. Greg DiFelice, who grew up in Upper Saddle River, NJ as the youngest of eight children. After training at Hospital for Special Surgery post-medical school, Dr. DiFelice returned to the hospital five years ago. He has been seeing patients at the new Paramus satellite office for the past eight months.

Reporter Ed Mills talks to Dr. DiFelice about a new procedure he developed for the treatment of knee injuries. “My clinical research is focused on the cruciate ligament of the knee,” said Dr. Gregory S. DiFelice, Orthopedic Surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery. “I have developed an intriguing new procedure for the ACL that is much less invasive, less morbid and has a quicker recovery time than the standard treatment of ACL reconstruction.”
