People news: SOS adds orthopedic surgeon to joint replacement team

DeWITT, N.Y. — Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists (SOS) recently announced that Dr. David A. Quinzi has joined its joint replacement team.

A fellowship-trained surgeon, he is joining the SOS joint replacement program, which performs more than 3,000 surgeries annually.

Prior to coming aboard SOS, Dr. Quinzi completed a fellowship in adult reconstruction surgery at the Rothman Institute in New Jersey. He finished his residency at the University of Rochester Medical Center and received his medical degree from Upstate Medical University in Syracuse. Quinzi received his bachelor’s degree from Cornell University.

“Dr. Quinzi is great asset to our joint replacement team, and we are excited to have him join SOS,” Mike Humphrey, CEO of SOS, said in a news release. “We welcome him back to Syracuse and know his expertise will benefit many patients in Central New York.”

Dr. Quinzi said that nearly 40-50 percent of his orthopedic fellowship was training with new robotics technologies.

“This technology can be useful for more complex cases, those with preexisting hardware or different challenges,” he said in the release. At SOS, Quinzi has access to the CORI Surgical System for robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery and is certified with the MAKO for robotic assisted total knee, partial knee, and hip replacement.

Dr. Quinzi is accepting new patients and will be seeing patients at the following SOS offices: DeWitt-Widewaters, Camillus, Oswego Road, and Airport Business Park.
