A Personal Approach

More Than Just a Surgeon

Dr. Feghhi believes surgery isn't always the answer. In many cases, nonoperative treatments are attempted first—and they work. Through personal shared decision-making, he partners with you to create a treatment plan geared toward your goals. His philosophy is simple: keep a small problem small. A thorough evaluation after an acute injury more often has a simple solution than delaying treatment, which can lead to a much longer road to recovery.

Having undergone many orthopedic procedures himself, Dr. Feghhi understands the patient's experience and strives to restore an active lifestyle. This personal experience gives him unique insight into the recovery process and patient concerns.

From Athlete to Surgeon

"At Rutgers, I continued playing soccer, but several sports injuries and surgeries led me to pursue a career in orthopedic surgery. I came to the realization that professional athletics was not in my future and I would rather treat athletes instead—this would be a bit less painful."

This personal journey gives Dr. Feghhi a unique perspective—he understands both the physical and emotional aspects of recovering from orthopedic injuries and is dedicated to helping his patients return to the activities they love.
