Last Friday was Thank a Resident Day! We are grateful for our amazing residents everyday.

Long hours. Early mornings. Late nights. Endless pages. And still, they show up ready to learn, operate, support, and care for patients across the Bronx every single day.

Residents are the backbone of our teams, balancing rigorous training with real responsibility in the operating room and on the floors. Their commitment drives innovation, strengthens our community, and helps ensure every patient receives the thoughtful, high-level care they deserve.

We see your dedication. We appreciate your resilience. And today, we thank you.

Flat feet are common in children and most of the time, they’re completely normal.

Many kids are born with flat feet, and the arch naturally develops over years as coordination improves and muscles grow stronger and more balanced. In many cases, treatment simply means supporting a child through healthy growth and development.

But when flat feet become painful or start to limit activity, that’s when we step in.

At Montefiore Einstein Orthopedics, we begin with proven conservative options to relieve discomfort and support proper alignment. And if those measures aren’t enough, we offer advanced surgical solutions. There are even exciting minimally invasive techniques on the horizon that are expanding how we manage pediatric flat feet.

Our goal is to guide families through every stage, offering clear recommendations and reassurance as your child grows, develops, and stays active here in the Bronx and beyond.

Today, while the snow falls across the Bronx and much of the city slows down, our operating rooms are still running.

Drs. Blum, Kim, Alvarado, and Kahn, along with their incredible orthopedic teams, are in surgery, making sure patients get the care they need despite the blizzard outside.

Weather may disrupt commutes, but it doesn’t disrupt our commitment.

At Montefiore Einstein Orthopedics, we’re here today, just like every day, delivering expert care to the Bronx community. Snow can’t stop us.

For Dr. Alexa Karkenny, caring for children with cerebral palsy is more than a specialty. It’s a long-term commitment to a child, their family, and their future.

Her practice allows her to follow kids throughout their lives, from newborns and toddlers all the way through their teen years and into young adulthood.

Just yesterday, she saw a 2-year-old girl with cerebral palsy that affects her legs, and she had just started walking. Dr. Karkenny spoke with her family about what they can expect in the years ahead, including treatment options and, if needed down the road, surgeries that can help optimize how she walks and help her keep walking as well as possible.

Over time, those visits become more than medical care. They become a relationship built on trust, reassurance, and helping families feel less scared about what the future might hold.

Our newest members of the “Residency Flight Club” earned the highest scores in their respective class on the Orthopedic In-Training Exam (OITE), a true testament to their discipline, focus, and commitment to surgical mastery.

In addition to certificates and well-earned bragging rights, each resident received a new pair of Air Jordans, courtesy of Program Director Dr. Kahn.

Please join us in congratulating:

Evan Mostafa, PGY-5
Matthew Goldner, PGY-4
Omair Qureshi, PGY-3
Kaelyn Gwynne, PGY-2

We are proud of the hard work and dedication that continues to define our residency program.

Dr. Zachary Berliner knows what it means to help people get their life back.

Born and raised in New York, Dr. Berliner trained throughout the Northeast before joining the Montefiore Einstein Orthopedic Surgery team, where he specializes in hip and knee replacement surgery.

He was drawn to orthopedic surgery for a simple reason:

Because it gives you the chance to help patients move again. Get back to doing what they love. And return to the everyday moments that make life feel normal.

If pain is keeping you from living the way you want to, you don’t have to “just deal with it.”

We’re here in the Bronx, ready to help you get back on your feet.

The Olympics are a reminder of something every athlete understands, whether you’re competing on the world stage or just playing in your weekend league:

Getting back in the game matters.

For many people, sports are more than a hobby. It’s their routine, their stress relief, their community, and sometimes even their livelihood. And when an injury happens, returning safely isn’t something we rush. It’s something we take seriously.

Because every injury is different. For some, the road back is quick. For others, it’s gradual. Either way, we’re with you through every step, checking in throughout the process and building your return the right way, from early movement… to practice drills… to full sport.

Whether you’re chasing gold or just chasing your best, we’re here to help you get back to what you love.

We’re spotlighting innovation and one of the people behind the scenes helping move Orthopedics forward at Montefiore Einstein: Pamela Cabahug Zuckerman, PhD.

Pamela grew up in Washington Heights, earned her PhD from City College of New York, and now serves as a Manager of Clinical Research and Coordinator Scientist for our Trauma and Spine teams, with a faculty title as a Research Assistant Professor at Einstein College of Medicine.

Her work is all about turning curiosity into better care. Pamela partners with our surgeons to coordinate clinical research projects from start to finish, helping study what works, what improves outcomes, and what can change the way we treat patients in the Bronx and beyond. She also works closely with medical students and residents, who she calls the “powerhouses” of these projects.

Pamela loves research because it’s where creative ideas become real evidence. It’s where hypotheses get tested, data gets collected, and medicine gets better because of it.

Right now, she’s working on studies identifying patterns across adult patients in our Trauma and Spine divisions, and new research is already in the works. More to come soon.

Because innovation doesn’t just happen in the OR. It happens in the lab, in the data, and through people like Pamela.

Love is in the air… and the operating room.

This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating Dr. Lauren Crocco (Orthopedic Trauma) and Dr. Carlos Alvarado (Joint Reconstruction), a married couple who met during fellowship at Harvard in 2013 and have been orthopedic partners ever since!

They’re celebrating 11 years of marriage this year, and we’re lucky to have them both caring for patients here at Montefiore Einstein Orthopedics.
