Dr. Alpert’s interests are in treating sports injuries via minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques. He performs arthroscopy of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle. His main goal is to get patients of every age back to their activities as quickly and safely as possible after injury. Procedures such as arthroscopic rotator cuff repair of the shoulder, ACL reconstruction of the knee and hip arthroscopy are done on an outpatient basis. This minimizes post-operative pain, increases the potential for rehabilitation and can lead to a quicker recovery.
