Orthopedic Surgeon Awarded Top Doctor

Castle Connolly recently awarded Dr. Vishal Mehta of Fox Valley Orthopedics with the honorable Top Doctor distinction. Dr. Mehta is a world-renowned, board-certified orthopedic surgeon who specializes in sports medicine with an emphasis on arthroscopic procedures of the shoulder, knee and hip, cartilage restoration and shoulder replacement. In addition to being the president at Fox Valley Orthopedics, he is a leader in orthopedic innovations, researcher, and speaks at various international conferences throughout the year. He is the founder of Fox Valley Orthopedic Research Foundation and the Foundation for International Orthopedic Development, a not-for-profit organization created to establish and further orthopedic care in Zambia, South Africa.

When a doctor is first nominated for the Top Doc distinction, a physician-led research team determines if that physician meets Castle Connolly’s standards. Castle Connolly’s team then evaluates several criteria when selecting Top Doctors, including professional qualifications, education, hospital and facility appointments, research leadership, professional reputation and disciplinary history.
