Dr. Vegari also earned his MBA at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He is the author of several peer-published papers, book chapters, and podium presentations.

Dr. Vegari chose to devote his career to joint replacement and robotic-assisted techniques because he believes it’s truly special to work with a patient who is hurting or suffering, and to help them regain their quality of life. He specializes in reconstruction of the hip and knee in adults, including total hip and knee replacement, partial knee replacement, and revision hip and knee replacement.
