Adam M. Almaguer, M.D.

Hip | Knee | Joint Reconstruction | Hip Preservation

Dr. Adam M. Almaguer is a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon with specialized training in joint reconstruction and hip preservation. He treats a variety of patients with musculoskeletal issues resulting from developmental hip dysplasia, arthritis, injury and overuse.

A native of Florida, Dr. Almaguer completed his undergraduate education at Florida State University. He earned his medical degree from the University of Central Florida, where he was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Honor Society. He then completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Following residency, he completed a Joint Reconstruction and Hip Preservation fellowship at Orthopedic Centers of Colorado in Denver, CO.

Under the guidance of Dr. Presley Swann, he received extensive training in the treatment of hip dysplasia performing periacetabular osteotomies. This allows him to care for the young adult population in treating and preventing the early onset of hip arthritis associated with hip dysplasia.

Dr. Almaguer’s expertise also includes performing hip and knee replacements in the outpatient surgical setting. He performs hip replacements through a variety of approaches tailored to each patient’s needs. This includes the minimally invasive, muscle-sparing direct anterior approach and bikini incision. He performs total and partial knee replacements using kinematic alignment. This advanced technique involves the use of robotics or patient-specific 3-D printed models and guides, allowing for a customized joint replacement that is specific to each patient’s unique anatomy.

Outside of orthopedics, Dr. Almaguer enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife, Lexi, and their two children, Luke and Brooklyn. Some of their favorite activities include hiking, snowboarding, spearfishing and biking.
