Orthopedic Surgeon
5750 Downey Ave, 308, Lakewood, CA
Prem N.

Dr. Ramkumar is proud to serve his hometown counties of Los Angeles and Orange County. Education He received his medical education and surgical training at Cleveland Clinic, Harvard/Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Hospital for Special Surgery – the #1 ranked orthopedic hospital in the country. He was privileged to serve as Assistant Team Physician to the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets and MLS’ Red Bulls during his time at Hospital for Special Surgery. He acquired his MBA from Cornell University’s campus at Cornell Tech campus in New York City to continue leveraging emerging technologies to improve the clinical practice of hip and knee conditions. Specifically, his research team is currently evaluating the impact of a combined deep learning, computer vision, and segmentation algorithm to automate the detection and quantification of abnormal hip and knee anatomy with preoperative CT scans. Medical Approach Dr. Ramkumar’s core value is caring for patients. He does so by treating his patients like he would his own family, listening to them, and understanding their priorities in life. In return, Dr. Ramkumar will always be transparent about the realities and evidence surrounding a patient’s underlying condition and treatment options. It is not common for orthopedic surgeons to be dual fellowship trained. Dr. Ramkumar specifically chose to pursue two hip and knee fellowships to be a comprehensive, one-stop shop for any patient with a hip or knee condition – from arthroscopy and repair to resurfacing and replacement. He appreciates the difficulty of navigating the world of healthcare and finding access to the right doctor who can actually help.
