About
Dr. Steven Denyer,
MD, MS
Fellowship-trained hip and knee replacement surgeon. South Florida-rooted. Evidence-driven care.
Philosophy
My goal is simple: get you back to doing the things you love. Whether that's walking your dog, playing with your grandchildren, or competing in a 5K, I want to understand what matters most to you and design a surgical plan that gets you there as safely and quickly as possible.
I trained in Boston under surgeons who pioneered modern joint replacement, and I brought the best of those techniques to South Florida. I use a muscle-sparing approach whenever possible — smaller incisions, less damage to soft tissue, and a faster path back to normal life.
I believe most patients can go home the same day as surgery. You heal better in your own environment, and the data supports it. I've built my practice around outpatient joint replacement because I think it's the right thing for patients.
