STEVEN J. HELLER, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Dr.
Steven Heller has been associated with the Center for Orthopaedics for
many years, starting the practice together with Dr. Edward Decter.
He trained at the well-known Hospital for Joint Diseases
Orthopaedic Institute in NewYork City, and served as chief resident
as well. Upon completing his orthopaedic residency, he extended his
training by completing a fellowship in the treatment of a wide array
of spinal problems, both surgical and non-surgical. After many years
of surgical practice, Dr. Heller has now limited his practice to office
orthopaedic care (consultations and treatment) regarding the spectrum
of orthopaedic ailments calling upon his vast experience and expertise
of conservative as well as surgical patient management.
