About Matthew McLean, MD, FAAOS

I have been in practice in the Northeast Philadelphia area since 2004 treating patients with routine and complex sports medicine injuries as well as more general orthopaedic injuries and conditions. My special areas of expertise include arthroscopic knee surgery and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. For relaxation I enjoy running both literally and between my three children’s activities.
