Boston area orthopedic surgeon

Wondering if anyone has had a good experience with an orthopedic surgeon in the Boston area. My wife and I both have running ailments we would like to take care of before we begin training for the Chicago marathon.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I could find you one but suggest you ask your primary for a referral . Otherwise try Children's Hosipital Division of Sports Medicine 617-355-3501. They have orthos , know runners and deal with adults.

Good luck !!

best ortho doc is at children's hospital sported medicine - his name is Lyle Micheli. Google him and be blown away. He is a rugby player and totally "gets" runners.
