About Us
You deserve the best care and treatment possible. Orthopedic surgery is highly specialized and the techniques used must be accurate and precise, as there is no room for error. Not all neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons are qualified to be considered spine surgeons. A true spine surgeon is a sub-specialty trained physician. His training goes beyond what is required for orthopedic surgeons and includes fellowship training specifically for spine surgery, an intensive period of study where specialized skills are acquired and perfected.
Dr. Porter is a board-certified Orthopedic Surgeon that specializes in sports medicine issues. He earned his medical degree at Rutgers Medical School and went on to become the Chief Resident in Orthopaedic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. Dr. Porter expanded his knowledge in the field further by completing a fellowship in Sports Medicine at Miami Orthopedics and Sports Medicine. Throughout his career he has worked with numerous athletic teams, most notably the NHL Florida Panthers, the NBA Heat and the NFL Miami Dolphins. After living in Miami, Dr. Porter moved back to Manhattan where he now practices in Northern New Jersey, and operates at multiple hospitals.

He is among the very best orthopedic surgeons in the tri-state area and you will be in excellent hands with him as your physician." - GV

"The best experience I’ve ever had at a doctors office. Dr. Porter was clear and very easy to understand. He really tried to explain things so I would understand him.
He explained my options and 4 months post surgery and I’ve never felt better. Staff was welcoming too, very easy to deal with.
I would recommend Dr. Porter to anyone looking for a doctor who really cares." - WM
