Philosophy of care | Because everyone has unique issues and concerns about their musculoskeletal problem, I spend time learning about what is impacting you and designing a treatment plan to accomplish your goals. I make sure you understand both the details of your condition and the treatments I propose. In this way, we can truly move forward with shared decision-making to achieve an optimal outcome. Educating the next generation of orthopedic surgeons is also a priority of mine; I am leading a team to build a new orthopedic residency training program here at LVHN. | Why I entered medicine | I still remember as a child accompanying my father (an orthopedic surgeon) on his patient rounds. I dreamed of one day helping patients return to the activities they loved just as did. I studied hard, became an EMT, volunteered at a firehouse, worked ski patrol in college and taught the winter care emergency course to my fellow patrollers. In medical school I found orthopedic surgery to be the most exciting path for me, and I have never looked back. I have found immense satisfaction over the years helping patients feel and function better, and am so gratified hearing I have changed their lives for the better. | Community involvement | As the father of two preemies (born 11 weeks early), my wife and I have supported research to investigate the causes of premature birth. We have been on the leadership team for the Philadelphia March of Dimes' annual March for Babies for several years.

I also have been an alumni interviewer for my alma mater, Dartmouth College, for over 20 years. | Personal interests | I enjoy skiing, hiking and biking with my wife, daughter and son. I welcome any and all dad jokes and puns. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list.

Dr. Weiss is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Tendinitis. His top areas of expertise are Osteoarthritis, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, Bursitis, Tendinitis, and Knee Replacement.

Philosophy of care | I have always felt that physicians should treat the whole patient, not just symptoms. Pain is a complex condition by nature as I cannot feel what you are experiencing. Only by listening to you, examining you, reviewing your studies/imaging, will I be able to accurately pin down what is causing your pain. Taking care of both your mental and physical health is key to putting you on the road to recovery | Why I entered medicine | When it came time for me to decide where I was heading with my life, I decided to explore the medical field by volunteering at the local ER. While the environment of the ER was very chaotic, my experience was nothing short of amazing. It was extremely rewarding to be able to help care for others when they are at the most vulnerable moment. I knew then that I want to take more of a role in helping others. Medicine then felt like a natural path for me to take. | Personal interests | In my free time I enjoy photography, tennis and trying new restaurants. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list.

Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to treat you as if you are a family member, using proven techniques to provide you the best possible outcome.

As a heart transplant recipient I am alive purely because of the generosity of others, and am highly motivated to increase awareness about how organ donation saves lives every day. I believe my experience as a patient allows me to empathize with my patients. I found myself unable to climb a flight of stairs with my heart condition, but worked diligently following my transplant and recently won the world transplant cycling race in Perth, Australia. Orthopedic injuries require a team approach and hard work to return to form, and I feel I am uniquely qualified to help my patients in this journey. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list.

I explain the diagnosis and treatment options as clearly and succinctly as possible so my patients can make informed decisions about their care. I stick with what works best for me and my patients in the office and in surgery, always wanting the best outcome possible. | Why I entered medicine | It was easy for me to follow my father, a well-respected obstetrician/gynecologist, into a medical career. I wanted to combine my love of sports and interest in how an athlete was able to return to play after a devastating injury by becoming a sports medicine doctor. I envisioned myself as the team doctor running onto the field to tend to the stricken athlete; now, it's a reality. | Community involvement | I'm involved with the Maimonides Society of the Lehigh Valley, the Lehigh Valley Dawgs (minor league basketball) and multiple charitable donations and endeavors.

I also strive to treat each individual with the same dignity and respect as I would treat my own family. | Why I entered medicine | I have always had a passion for medicine, and I enjoy the opportunity to have relationships with my patients within the community. I find medicine to be both rewarding and challenging, as every day is different and every individual has specific needs. Through medicine I can help heal the body and the mind not only with medication, but with education and awareness. I entered medicine to know that at the end of the day, I have hopefully made a difference in someone's life and well-being. I chose sports medicine as a specialty because I understand the importance of fitness in a person's overall health. I feel I can relate to active individuals because I myself was a college athlete and continue to maintain my health through exercise. Since almost 90 percent of sports injuries do not require surgical intervention, I wanted to have a career that would allow me to give my patients a variety of treatment options. | Community involvement | I work with students and athletes at Muhlenberg College and Cedar Crest College. | Personal interests | My personal interests include spending time with my family and playing outside with my kids.

"Philosophy of care | I want to get to know you, first as a person, not as a patient. I want to know what kind of work you do, what sports you play, and what hobbies/extracurricular activities you enjoy. I will then take your medical history, my physical exam, and diagnostic studies to come up with a diagnosis. I will teach you about your problem and the most up-to-date treatment options, including what tends to work (and not work). I will help you improve and reach an outcome you are pleased with through mutual decision-making, making sure to exhaust all non-operative measures. As partners, we weigh the risks and benefits of various options and choose a plan we are both happy with. If the answer is surgery, I will help you through the process and be with you every step of the way on your recovery. I treat all patients like family, but also use the scientific orthopedic literature to help guide the decision-making process. | Why I entered medicine | I grew up in Florida and my father was an ophthalmologist (and original Tampa Bay Rays eye doctor). With my mother being a nurse, I was always exposed to medicine. I saw my parents helping people and was inspired to pursue medicine as a career. That, plus my love for sports, sciences, biomechanics and anatomy, led me toward orthopedics. It's very rewarding to help people get their function, motion and quality of life back. As a collegiate baseball player, I was drawn to the anatomy, biomechanics, and function of the upper extremity, and how to rehab and treat the common injuries. As the team hand surgeon for many local high schools, colleges and professional teams, I understand what it takes to get you ""back on the field."" | Community involvement | I have worked with local high school students interested in health care and led them through several upper extremity cadaver dissections. I am also the team hand surgeon for many local high schools, Lehigh University, Kutztown University and Muhlenberg College to name a few. I am the hand surgeon for the American Hockey League - Lehigh Valley Phantoms. In my spare time, I coach Little League baseball in the South Parkland Youth Association. | Personal interests | Professionally, I enjoy teaching our next generation of physicians: high school students, medical students and plastic surgery residents, in the office and the OR. | Personally, I enjoy traveling, the beach, all four seasons the Lehigh Valley has to offer, and spending time with my wife and four children.

I feel extremely fortunate. I am team physician at Lafayette College, and was assistant team doctor for the Los Angeles Lakers, the Los Angeles Kings and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
