About Me
During her residency and fellowship, she treated athletes on the field as well as in the operating room as an assistant team physician for the New York Giants and the New York Liberty. She also worked with several other collegiate and high school teams and athletes.
Following her fellowship, Dr. McCarthy spent time abroad learning about specialized orthopedic techniques. She studied ACL reconstruction and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction with members of the ACL Study Group. This group included orthopedists from multiple countries who treated professional soccer players. Dr. McCarthy spent additional time in France and Australia learning about treatments for patellofemoral disorders and rotator cuff tendon injuries.
Dr. McCarthy’s clinical and research background focuses on disorders of the knee and shoulder. She has several published peer-reviewed articles and book chapters. She also presents at national meetings on topics involving sports medicine conditions of the knee and shoulder.
Dr. McCarthy offers expert surgical and non-surgical solutions that help patients get back to their sport. She's committed to educating her patients about their conditions and their role in recovery.
