Biography
James Fitzgerald, MD, is an orthopaedic surgeon with Lakeshore Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. His Great Lakes Physician Practice profile lists medical training at Georgetown University School of Medicine, orthopaedic surgery residency at SUNY Upstate Medical Center, and a hand surgery fellowship at SUNY Buffalo; it also notes board certification in orthopaedic surgery and hospital affiliations including UPMC Chautauqua and Brooks Memorial Hospital. When Great Lakes announced his arrival in 2018, the practice said he had already spent more than 30 years caring for patients in western New York and had performed more than 3,000 joint replacements, and a later UPMC story described him as a mentor to colleague Brian Mata, MD, in managing complex knee-replacement cases.
