The Most Convenient, High-Quality Orthopedic Care Anywhere

Talk to a Specialist

Why GoOrtho?

GoOrtho was founded by some of the nation’s top orthopedic physicians and innovators in healthcare and came from the idea that everyone should have access to high-quality orthopedic care. For us, that meant changing the way patients receive care — eliminating the burdens of scheduling appointments months in advance, long wait times and traveling to a clinic.

As a direct-to-consumer digital orthopedic clinic, GoOrtho provides non-surgical solutions with proven outcomes right to a patient’s computer, smartphone or tablet. It’s truly the most convenient way to receive high-quality orthopedic care anywhere.

What We Do Differently

Our goal is to enable and empower our patients to live their best lives. That’s why we’re bringing the orthopedic clinic right to you. It takes too much time, money and effort to be seen in a traditional orthopedic office.

To get you on a path to wellness and freedom from your aches and pains, GoOrtho provides a platform, in the comfort of your home, to speak with an Orthopedic Clinical Professional (OCP) face-to-face.

You can work with your OCP to develop a personalized, ongoing, non-operative treatment plan without the hassle of a traditional office visit. Should you ever need to see a professional in person, we can refer you to an orthopedic surgeon or physician in our network.

Justin Leonti

Having dealt with knee and back issues himself, Justin Leonti is aware of how inconvenient and inconsistent traditional orthopedic office visits can be. When he was introduced to the idea of orthopedic care delivered through a digital platform, he immediately saw the value. With experience in business and as an entrepreneur, Justin and the team created GoOrtho to change the landscape of the orthopedic industry.

“We’re excited to provide this life-changing technology so individuals can receive the support they need to make lifestyle changes and be on the path to less pain. GoOrtho provides convenient home exercise programs, weekly coaching calls for support, and a simple-to-use platform so you have 24/7 support. This is the future of healthcare. Seeing a doctor should be just a text away.”

Dr. Zackary Byrd

Dr. Byrd received his medical degree from the University of Toledo, Ohio and completed an orthopedic surgery residency at McGovern Medical School in Houston, Texas. He has also trained at UT Physicians in Houston and at JIS Orthopedics in Ohio. He is sub-specialized in Adult Reconstruction and Joint Replacement surgery for Hip and Knee.

“The best thing about my work is seeing patients get back to the lives they want to lead. From improving conditions like arthritis or recovering from injuries, getting your life back doesn’t always mean surgery. Through improving access to care and ensuring non-surgical options are given the chance to work, we can help patients live their best lives.”
