Does a real doctor review everything on this site?
Yes. Dr. Keith Johnson, an orthopedic surgeon practicing in Clifton, NJ, reviews and approves the clinical content published here.
He completed fellowship training in orthopedic sports medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, and his practice centers on the shoulder, hip, and knee, along with low back pain, neck pain, sciatica, and cervical radiculopathy. Pages covering those areas reflect how he actually evaluates and treats patients, not generic copy.
How is this content checked for accuracy?
Each page is checked against a named clinical source before it is published, not written from opinion alone.
Where this site states a number, such as a typical recovery timeline, it names the organization the figure comes from, for example the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (2024). A claim that cannot be traced to a source or to Dr. Johnson's own clinical practice is removed rather than left unsupported.
Where do the facts on this site come from?
They come from recognized orthopedic sources and from Dr. Johnson's own training record.
His orthopedic surgery residency was completed at Howard University Hospital in Washington, D.C., and his sports medicine fellowship was completed at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York. Procedure and condition pages are checked against current guidance from orthopedic specialty societies and peer-reviewed literature, not drafted from memory.
Is anything on this site medical advice?
No. The information here explains conditions, imaging, and treatment options in general terms; it does not diagnose, and it does not replace an in-person evaluation.
A description of symptoms is meant to help a reader recognize when a conversation with a doctor makes sense, not to tell them what condition they have.
Does this site overstate what Dr. Johnson does?
No. This site lists only the procedures Dr. Johnson performs and the areas of orthopedics he focuses on, taken directly from his training and practice record rather than promotional language.
Where a detail about his background appears, such as his fellowship at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York, it is stated as a checkable fact, not as a comparison to other surgeons.
How often is this content reviewed?
This content is reviewed whenever clinical guidance changes or Dr. Johnson's practice information is updated, not on a fixed promotional schedule.
That keeps the pages aligned with current orthopedic practice rather than with marketing copy that goes stale.
This content is educational and is not a substitute for medical advice from a physician.
