As we wrap up Scoliosis Awareness Month, we’re reminded that at Montefiore Orthopedics, scoliosis care isn’t limited to one month, it’s part of what we do every single day.

Dr. Schulz, Director of our Pediatric Orthopedic Fellowship, recently shared the story of a young woman who came to him with a significant spinal curve, uneven shoulders, and more growing still to do. After thoughtful conversations and careful planning, she underwent surgery to correct the curve and prevent further progression.
Recovery wasn’t easy. She was in pain and frustrated at first. But today, six years later, she’s thriving. She’s in college, she’s active, and she’s happy with both how her back looks and how it feels.

Stories like hers are what drive us. We’re proud to be a part of journeys like this one and to provide expert care every step of the way.

Meet Dr. Mitchell Weiser, Director of the Adult Reconstruction Joint Replacement Fellowship Program at Montefiore Einstein and Assistant Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

Dr. Weiser specializes in hip and knee conditions such as osteoarthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteonecrosis. He works closely with patients to evaluate both surgical and non-surgical options, always aiming for the most minimally invasive treatment. When surgery is needed, he performs both traditional and computer-navigated joint replacements, including complex revision procedures.
His research focuses on pain management, surgical outcomes, and infection control, and has been published in top orthopedic journals. We’re proud to have Dr. Weiser on the Montefiore Orthopedics team, delivering expert care and improving mobility for patients every day.
