MedStar Orthopaedic Institute

formerly Greater Metropolitan Orthopaedics

Greater Metropolitan Orthopaedic Institute was founded in 1976 by Jeffrey D. Sabloff, M.D. Since that time, the practice has grown to five offices spanning Maryland and Virginia and in 2014 joined MedStar Health as part of theMedStar Orthopaedic Institute. In addition to Orthopaedic care, we provide physical medicine and rehabilitation (Physiatry), Rheumatology, Pain Management and Infusion Therapy. Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy are conveniently co-located in our offices and offered by MedStar Physical Therapy. Our philosophy has always been to provide the best care for all our patients from a dedicated team of physicians, physical therapists, and staff.

In our practice, all aspects of musculoskeletal rehabilitation are covered. Our physicians have been trained to treat the full range of problems affecting the musculoskeletal system, including injuries and degenerative processes involving the extremities and spine. We employ a wide range of treatments including medicine, physical therapy, exercise, bracing, and casting. Only as a last resort do we recommend outpatient or inpatient surgery.

Special areas of Orthopaedic expertise include knees, hips, foot and ankle, hand and microsurgery, joint replacement, scoliosis and spine, sports medicine and arthroscopy, and shoulder and elbow problems.

Our Vision:

To be the trusted leader in caring for people and advancing health.

Our Mission:

To serve our patients, those who care for them, and our communities.
