Joshua Rozell MD
Associate Professor, Department of Orthopedic Surgery and Chief of Orthopaedics
NYU Langone Health – Brooklyn
Dr. Joshua C. Rozell is a native of Long Island, New York and migrated south to Emory University where he studied neuroscience and behavioral biology. He then went to Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia and remained there for residency in orthopaedic surgery at the University of Pennsylvania. He completed his Adult Reconstruction Fellowship at The Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colorado. He joined the NYU faculty in 2019 and now serves as the Chief of Orthopaedics at NYU Brooklyn and the director of patient reported outcomes research. He completed the Insall Travelling Fellowship in October 2023 and is currently the first American Joint Replacement Registry research fellow. He just celebrated his 11 year anniversary with his wife Amanda, and has two amazing daughters Charlotte (8) and Remi (4).
Burnout is one of those topics that is omnipresent at all levels of medical training but is rarely talked about. Dr. Rozell believes that identifying signs of burnout early in practice and normalizing discussions of work-life integration are critical to surgeon development and well-being. Ultimately feeling satisfied and fulfilled at work provide a framework for meaningful contributions to the field of orthopaedic surgery.
