About
Zayde Radwan, MD, is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who specializes in hip and knee reconstructive surgery. He prides himself on delivering excellent and compassionate care to obtain the best outcomes with the least amount of discomfort.
Dr. Radwan concentrates on primary (first time) and revision (redo) total hip and total knee replacements, as well as partial knee replacements and hip resurfacing. He performs total hip replacements through both anterior (front) and posterior (back) approaches.
His practice encompasses the treatment of all forms of arthritis, continued pain following a joint replacement, developmental disorders of all ages that require joint replacement, fractures with or without the involvement of a joint replacement, as well as the treatment of complex infections involving joint replacements. When clinically applicable, he is experienced in using technology (robotics and navigation) to aid with his procedures.
Dr. Radwan is an assistant professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston.
Dr. Radwan joined the UT Physicians orthopedics team from the University of Colorado, where he completed a fellowship in hip and knee reconstructive surgery. Prior to his fellowship, he attended medical school and completed his residency at McGovern Medical School. He graduated summa cum laude from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor in Belton, Texas with undergraduate degrees in cell biology and psychology.
His professional memberships include the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons. Furthermore, he has an interest in surgical education and research. During both his residency and fellowship, he participated in several clinical research projects with a focus on trauma, venous thromboembolisms (blood clots), and outcomes following revision joint replacements. He continues to investigate questions involving total joint replacements as faculty for the McGovern Medical School Adult Reconstruction Fellowship and the Center for Orthopedic Research, Innovation and Training (CORIT Lab).
As a native Houstonian, Dr. Radwan grew up in the southeastern suburb of Deer Park, Texas. Growing up, he spent much of his time on the football field. It was his experiences as a patient that inspired him to seek a career in orthopedics and help care for others. He is married to his college sweetheart, and they have two young daughters. When not caring for his patients, he enjoys spending time with his family, the outdoors, sports, and taking his dog Greyson on walks.
