Brief Intro

The Anderson Orthopaedic Clinic would like to introduce their newest associate, Nitin Goyal, MD who joins the group in August 2011 as a fellowship trained specialist in the field of hip and knee reconstruction (joint replacement). A native of Great Falls, Virginia, Dr. Goyal returns to his hometown after training in Philadelphia for the past 10 years. Dr. Goyal completed his medical education at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where he graduated at the top of his class and was elected into the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society in his third year. He went on to complete his residency in Orthopaedic Surgery at the world-renowned Rothman Institute & Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. There he received the Everett J. Gordon award as the Chief Orthopaedic resident demonstrating the "most outstanding clinical and surgical achievement." Dr. Goyal stayed on at The Rothman Institute to pursue specialized training in complex hip and knee reconstruction. His particular surgical interests include computer navigation for partial and total knee replacement, anterior approach for hip replacement, complex revision of failed hip and knee replacement, revision for infection and treatment of hip pain in the younger adult population. He will join Dr. Hamilton as one of the only surgeons in the INOVA Health System performing the exciting muscle sparing anterior approach to total hip arthroplasty. This approach offers the possibility of less postoperative pain and an accelerated recovery. Dr. Goyal has published articles in several major Orthopaedic journals, presented at national meetings, co-authored several book chapters and is a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons. His specific research interests include improved management of postoperative pain following total joint arthroplasty, and the diagnosis and management of infection following total joint arthroplasty. According to Dr. Goyal, "My foremost aspiration is to take care of each patient to the best of my ability and as if they were a part of my immediate family. I believe that a strong doctor-patient relationship, adherence to surgical principles, and a motivated patient will result in the best possible outcome." In his free time, he enjoys running, working out, and playing tennis, but he spends most of his leisure time traveling with his wife Rachna.
