LA Ortho & Wellness helps active adults understand what is causing their pain, compare their options, and build a plan around the life they want to keep living.
The goal is not simply to hurt less. It is to help you stay active longer.
YOUR GOALS COME FIRST
Golf. Tennis. Pickleball. Hiking. Skiing. Travel. Workouts. Keeping up with family.
Your symptoms, examination, and imaging help define the orthopedic problem. Your activity goals help define the plan.
Feeling better matters. Getting back to what you actually want to do matters too.
LA Ortho & Wellness is led by Dr. Jonathan Gelber, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in sports medicine and experience in regenerative treatment.
Because he understands both surgical and nonsurgical care, Dr. Gelber can look at the whole picture. If rehabilitation, an injection, or a regenerative treatment is reasonable, he can explain why. If surgery is likely to offer a better path, he will tell you that too.
The treatment decision is based on fit—not on selling the most advanced procedure.
Define the problem and what you want to return to.
Choose the medical treatment that best fits your diagnosis and goals.
Rebuild the strength, movement, and capacity your activity requires.
See how you are progressing toward the activities that matter to you.
Dr. Gelber’s focus on Joint Longevity keeps your activity goals at the center—from diagnosis and treatment through recovery and return to the activities you love.
Patients may come to us with knee, shoulder, hip, back, joint, or tendon pain. Treatment may involve rehabilitation, medication, an injection, regenerative medicine, or surgery when appropriate.
Supportive services such as infrared laser or hyperbaric oxygen may also be considered within a broader orthopedic plan.
You do not need to choose a treatment before your visit. Start by understanding the problem and what you want to get back to doing.
LA Ortho & Wellness is an independent orthopedic practice—not a large hospital system or a procedure-driven clinic. Our team takes the time to understand your concerns, explain your options clearly, and help you make a thoughtful decision.
Dr. Gelber earned his medical degree from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, completed orthopedic surgery residency at Harbor-UCLA, and completed sports medicine fellowship training at Cleveland Clinic. He also holds a master’s degree in biomedical engineering from Columbia University.
LA Ortho & Wellness serves active adults in Toluca Lake, Studio City, Burbank, North Hollywood, and greater Los Angeles.
Bring your questions, available imaging, and the activities you want to preserve or return to.
Dr. Jonathan Gelber of LA Ortho & Wellness provides comprehensive orthopedics, blending functional and integrative medicine for the LA area.
