Doctor Feinblatt is a Board certified orthopedic surgeon
specializing in reconstructive Foot, Ankle and Knee surgery and
Sports Medicine. He received his undergraduate degree from The
Pennsylvania State University in State College, Pennsylvania, and
his medical degree from The Pennsylvania State University
College of Medicine in Hershey, Pennsylvania. He completed his
orthopedic surgery residency at The Ohio State University in
Columbus, Ohio. He then traveled to Phoenix, Arizona for The
Phoenix Combined Fellowship in which he received sub-specialty
training in both Foot & Ankle reconstructive surgery and Sports
Medicine.
Since joining ROC Orthopedic in 2008 (formerly Oregon Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Clinic) Dr. Feinblatt has actively taught physicians and physical therapists about the latest advancements in treatment of foot and ankle disorders. At Boston
in the summer of 2018, he presented to an international
audience, and facilitated a discussion on the use of arthroscopy
(use of a small camera to assist visualization) for multiple
procedures.
Dr. Feinblatt has performed multiple surgical procedures that
previously were unavailable in the region, including the first
modern ankle replacements performed at both Legacy Meridian
Park Hospital, and Providence Willamette Falls Medical Center. Dr.
Feinblatt was the first to implant the STAR™ total ankle
replacement in the state of Oregon.

and tending to a small vineyard and hobby winery.
“As an orthopedic surgeon specializing in reconstructive foot,
ankle and knee surgery as well as sports medicine, I have a
unique interest and skill set that allows me to perform many
procedures in a minimally invasive fashion minimizing postoperative
pain and often enabling faster recovery. As such, many
procedures that previously required lengthy hospital stays can
now be performed as an outpatient (going home the same day)
allowing the patient to recover at home in a more comfortable
environment, while minimizing the risks associated with
hospitalization and decreasing expenses to the patient and the
health care system as a whole. Some large deformity correction
cases, post-polio, and cavus foot reconstruction may not able to
be performed arthroscopically, but the same principles of respect
for the soft tissues can hasten recovery.
Fortunately, many conditions of the foot, ankle and knee do not
require surgery and I work closely with other care providers
including my physician assistant, physical therapists, and
orthotists to ensure you return to maximum function as quickly
as possible.
Throughout my career I have been fortunate to help professional,
collegiate, and high school athletes as well as weekend warriors
return to their desired activities.”
At ROC we offer a full range of non-surgical options when
appropriate including physical therapy, oral and topical
medications, injections such as steroids, PRP (platelet rich
plasma), and stem cells - all performed at our office. We are not
limited only to surgery, nor only to injections as some other
clinics are, but offer the whole spectrum of care.
Because of the specialized care provided in our office, we
commonly receive patient referrals from primary care physicians,
nurse practitioners, physical therapists, chiropractors,
naturopaths, podiatrists, other orthopedic surgeons as well as
local emergency departments and urgent care facilities, and of
course from our previous patients. Please see the Testimonials page for some of their comments.
Dr. Feinblatt believes that treatment should be tailored to the
individual and that good communication and education are
cornerstones of medicine. A well informed patient can more
actively participate in their care and will recover from injury more
quickly.
