Ron Noy MD Noy Medical Training

Dr. Noy trained with some the world’s most famous orthopedic surgeons throughout his career, from New York City to Indianapolis. He also has a background in biomedical engineering studying at The Johns Hopkins University. He uses this knowledge to develop better techniques and equipment which have resulted in improved surgical outcomes. He was a high level athlete with professional aspirations when he was cut down with a knee injury early in his career. This led him into the orthopedic and sports medicine fields, to help others fulfill their dreams in spite injury. He always remembers what it was like to be on the other side of the table, and puts his patients goals first. He has passed on these principles to all the surgeons that have been a part of the practice.

Dr. Ron Noy’s Personal Care

Dr. Noy is extremely compassionate, and passionate about patient care. He sat on the orthopaedic quality improvement committee at Mount Sinai Beth Israel for many years, and has been sought out by medical companies for his expertise. He is known for his attention to detail and avidly became his patients’ advocate during surgery, making sure everything was perfect to optimize the outcome. He developed techniques to help patients recover faster and with less pain, and constantly reassessed these techniques to continue to improve them. He incorporated what is now known as multimodal post-operative pain protocols, 2 decades before the term was coined in a national attempt to combat the opiod crisis. His protocol led to the majority of his patients not needing narcotics after surgery, with little to no pain experienced even in traditionally painful procedures.

Yearly awards have included Castle Connolly, New York Magazine’s Best Doctors, NY Super Doctors, Vitals People’s Choice, America’s Top Orthopedists (Sports Medicine), America’s Top Surgeons (Orthopaedic Surgery), Manhattan’s Best, and others. However, Dr. Noy’s favorite recognition was the high percentage of patients that were referred to him by other patients.
