New York Elbow Orthopedic Surgeon

Elbow injuries affect far more than just the joint itself — damage to the bones, ligaments, tendons, and nerves of the elbow can radiate pain through the entire arm, restrict hand and wrist function, and significantly impact everything from athletic performance to everyday tasks like lifting, gripping, and reaching. Whether the result of a sports injury, workplace repetitive stress, acute trauma, or a degenerative condition like osteoarthritis, elbow problems tend to worsen without proper diagnosis and treatment. Advanced arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques now make it possible to accurately diagnose and effectively treat a wide range of elbow conditions — restoring function and relieving pain with less downtime than traditional open surgery.

Dr. Jonathan Glashow is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and Clinical Associate Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, with over 30 years of experience and more than 15,000 procedures performed. As Chief Medical Officer for the New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia 76ers — and a consultant for the LA Clippers and Crystal Palace F.C. — he routinely manages high-stakes upper extremity injuries in professional athletes, including UCL tears, elbow dislocations, and fractures that demand precise surgical technique and accelerated recovery timelines. A graduate of Cornell University Medical College with fellowship training in sports medicine and arthroscopic surgery at the Southern California Orthopedic Institute/UCLA, Dr. Glashow has been named a Castle Connolly Top Doctor every year since 2000 and brings that same level of specialized, elite-athlete care to every patient at his Upper East Side practice in New York City.
