Philosophy of care | Treat others as you'd want to be treated. It's as simple as that. We all learned this basic principle from an early age, and I continue to stand by it today as I make critical and life-saving decisions each and every day at your or your loved one’s bedside. | Why I entered medicine | At a young age, I was diagnosed with Legg-Calve Perthes, a rare and self-limiting childhood disease affecting the hip joint, so I was exposed to the medical field early and often. I grew and knew from that experience that I'd be committed to helping others in the future. I wanted a career in which I'd have both a direct and meaningful impact on others health. | Community involvement | My wife, son, and I are all new to the Lehigh Valley. We look forward to truly making it a home and meeting the rest of the community. We're all in this together. | Personal interests | Sports and the outdoors remain an interest and passion for me outside of the hospital walls. Life is a constant pursuit of adventure, pushing the boundaries and a quest for continual self-improvement. Dr. Weinberger is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in Gastrostomy. His top areas of expertise are Chronic Subdural Hematoma, Subdural Hematoma, Delirium, Gastrostomy, and Splenectomy.
