The difference

An orthopedic surgeon with a doctorate in biorobotics, applying engineering principles to design each replacement around the individual patient's anatomy.

Technology-first

Robotic arms, computer navigation, and intra-operative imaging are not add-ons, they are the baseline. Every case is planned in three dimensions before a single incision is made.

Individualized

No two hips or knees wear the same way. Dr. Debbi's implants are selected and positioned to each patient's gait, lifestyle and goals, not an average.

Technology & innovation

A surgeon who also
designs the tools.

Dr. Eytan Debbi is an incredible surgeon who gave me the best hip replacement surgery experience I could have asked for. He is the only doctor I talked to who embraced robotics, his approach is truly the future.
Bilateral Hip Replacement · Google ★★★★★
I could walk around the apartment with just a cane literally the next day. Six weeks after my second surgery, I ran down the hallway, I hadn't been able to do that without hobbling for years.

He and his team at HSS are like checking into a five star hotel, from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you are taken care of like you were the most important person on earth.

Dr. Debbi got me back to where I haven't been in years. He gave me back my quality of life. Nothing to worry about or fear when you put yourself in the best care, best facility and by far the best surgeon you can ever hope for.

From our first appointment to the 6-week follow up everything went better than I ever hoped. Dr. Debbi and everyone at HSS are professionals of the highest order. You cannot find a doctor in whom you will have more confidence.
