At Nirschl Orthopaedic Center, We Provide The Highest Quality Of Care, Compassion And Understanding.  Experience Matters

NOTICE: Nirschl Orthopaedic Center participates with CareFirst BCBS NCA which includes Blue Federal, Blue PPO, and Blue Choice HMO.

Recently CareFirst BCBS had a glitch in their system and sent a letter to our patients stating that our office was no longer in network with them, this was an error on their part.

We are working closely with CareFirst to correct this error and miscommunication.

We apologize for an inconvenience that this may have caused.

Thank you for your understanding.

Since its founding in 1974, Nirschl Orthopaedic Center (NOC) has been consistently rated one of the top orthopaedic and sports medicine centers in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. Our board certified physicians, with their extensive experience, are at the forefront of treating disorders of the hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, foot and ankle and treat a wide variety of injuries. Many have graduated from leading fellowship training programs with a concentration on the treatment of injuries of the hand and wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, foot and ankle. Our surgeons are regularly named as Top Doctors in the Northern Virginia, Arlington, Virginia Living, and Washingtonian Top Doctors Magazines.

The tradition of quality care and innovation originally instilled by our founder, Dr. Robert P. Nirschl, continues today with new treatments in hip preservation surgery, minimally invasive microvascular hand/wrist surgery, minimally-invasive foot and ankle surgery and rapid recovery joint replacements. Each patient receives our compassion, care, and understanding.

At NOC and our physical therapy facilities, Virginia Sports Medicine Institute (located in Arlington and McLean), we treat all of our patients, including professional and recreational athletes, those with non-athletic injuries, children as well as adults, with uncompromising care, compassion and understanding.

The physicians at the Nirschl Orthopaedic Center believe that physical rehabilitation is an integral part of a successful recovery plan, whether it is the primary treatment or follows a surgical procedure. With this in mind, our physicians work closely with our physical therapy team to design an individualized program so that optimum recovery, return to sports, and pain free activities are achieved as quickly as possible.

Drs. Matthew Buchanan, Derek Ochiai, Ronald Paik, Cassie Root and Clay Wellborn
welcome the opportunity to participate in your care.

NOC is conveniently located on the campus of the Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, Virginia and is just minutes away from Washington D.C. and Reagan National Airport.
