Dr. Michael Leighton and Dr. John Schilero at Palm Beach Orthopaedic Institute
Dr. Michael Leighton specializes in arthroscopic surgery of the knee and shoulder as well as knee, hip, and shoulder replacement. He has been in practice in Palm Beach County since 1994. He also serves as the team physician for local high schools and is the Medical Director of Palm Beach Atlantic University. Dr. Leighton is very sports oriented both in his own life and for his patient's. He enjoys golf, tennis, softball and hiking. His approach to non-operative rehabilitation and therapy after surgery is aimed at getting patients back to the sports that they love; specifically, total knee and hip patients are expected to be hitting golf balls between two and three months after surgery.
Dr. John Schilero understands that a pain free solution to your condition is of utmost importance and he uses every technique possible to insure as comfortable an experience as possible. Every surgical patient is anesthetized with a long acting local anesthetic so that the first few days are as comfortable as possible.
Dr. Schilero knows that the appearance of your feet is important in our sandal wearing, warm, south Florida environment. He will strive to make your feet look as good as they feel.
