Meet Dr. Robert Burnett

I approach every patient as if they are my brother, sister, mom or dad sitting across from me. My goal is for you to have a clear understanding of all available treatment options and to only proceed with surgery when all nonoperative routes have been tried.

Hello, my name is Rob Burnett. I’m a fellowship-trained hip and knee surgeon, which means I completed an additional year of training in the comprehensive care of patients who need hip and knee replacements. I utilize a mix of what I have determined to be the best implants and surgical techniques available to deliver the best results possible for my patients. I specialize in anterior hip replacements, partial and total knee replacement and revision arthroplasty surgeries.

I am an active researcher and teacher in the field of hip and knee replacement which helps keep me appraised of the most up to date techniques which I can incorporate into my practice.

I look forward to the opportunity to help you, whether that means discussion of various nonsurgical treatments or surgical intervention.

Ultimately, I hope to empower you, the patient, to guide your treatment and get back to the best version of yourself! Please schedule an appointment with me and my team to discuss your available options.
