Brief Intro

David A. Liebelt, M.D., Ph.D. specializes in hip and knee reconstruction and is dedicated to getting his patients back to doing the things they enjoy.

Dr. Liebelt earned his Science Degree in Biomedical Engineering from Northwestern University in 2001. He then attended the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University in New York City. There he trained in the Medical Scientist Training Program and earned both an M.D. and a Ph.D.

He stayed in New York City for his orthopedic surgery residency training at Montefiore Medical Center and Jacobi Medical Center. Under the guidance of partners of the late John Insall, one of the pioneers of modern joint replacement, Dr. Liebelt completed his orthopedic surgery fellowship in knee and hip reconstruction with the Insall Scott Kelly Institute at Northwell Health - Lenox Hill Hospital.

Dr. Liebelt is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon licensed in the state of Wisconsin. He is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons.

He has published articles in scientific and clinical journals, has presented posters at orthopedic surgery conferences, and works closely with the orthopedic surgery industry to improve devices, techniques, and clinical outcomes. He is a member of Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.

Before Dr. Liebelt began his medical training he was valedictorian of his high school and was an Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America.

When not working, he enjoys skiing, boating, and biking with his wife and son.
