Dr. Russell D. Donnelly is a board certified orthopedic surgeon in his twentieth year of practice in the Worcester community. Prior to this, he completed his orthopedic residency in Boston and before that sampled the sights and cuisine of Baltimore while attending the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. In the twenty years serving the Worcester Community, he has the unique distinction of improving the lives of over three thousand patients through joint replacement surgery. Experience. Compassion. Dedication. - Dr. Donnelly.

Such surgery can be a godsend to the patient and very gratifying for the surgeon in terms how much of a difference this can make for the patient. When he sees a patient in his office , his primary goal is to offer them the treatment that he would hope a member of his own family would receive. Such treatment often starts with conservative nonsurgical approaches including physical therapy, bracing, medications, and injection therapy. He participates with his patients in the treatment plan, and keeps them actively involved throughout the healing process.

Dr. Donnelly also is one of the few surgeons in Central Massachusetts offering Computer Assisted Knee Replacement Surgery. (www.KneeReplacement.com). This advanced technology offers greater precision and smaller incisions.

Dr. Donnelly also performs minimally invasive Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery, using advanced technology to improve his patients lives. (www.MyHipReplacement.com). With the mini - 2 incision technique, his patients are healing faster and restoring their mobility faster than ever.

His goal is to keep his patients always moving forward…one step at a time.
