Dr. Michael Daniel Dersam, MD

If I could rate negative stars, I would. Dr. Dersam replaced my left ACL with a section of my hamstring from the same leg. This is a standard, run-of-the mill procedure that had been successfully performed on my right knee by another surgeon. Once I was home, we discovered that my brace had been put on my leg backwards. Even worse, once the bandage was removed, the incision where my hamstring was removed looked like it had been cut by a drunk; It was 2x as long as it should have been and cut on an angle in a zig-zag pattern. It scarred horribly. Worst of all, a MRI 24 months later revealed frays and tears; I had to have the procedure done again. Avoid this surgeon.

Very professional, very knowledgable and compassionate. Took time with me explaining everything in laymens terms and did not rush me out the door. Would highly recommend.

Hearing nothing but great things about Dr. Dersam, when I had to consider what orthopedic surgeon to use after sliding into home plate and compound breaking my leg/ankle along with tearing multiple ligaments and tendons he was my first choice. Because he is such a well-known and excellent doctor he is busy but if you can, I highly recommend you get him. My ankle/leg healed amazing and I was done with physical training in no time! Great doctor with amazing results!

I recommend Dr. Dersam regularly and have used him for 3 different issues: Knee, hip and shoulder.

It has been a year now since surgery to re-attach my left distal bicep muscle that was nearly totally torn. Being only 41 and very active surgery was the route I felt was best. After talking about the pros, cons, and options with Dr. Dersam I was convinced he was the right Dr. for the surgery. He was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the procedure. He did a fantastic job and a year later my arm and strength are back to 100% of where I was before surgery. I would recommend Dr. Dersam to anyone seeking this or similar sports related injuries.
