STOP SPORTS INJURIES

Dr. Robert D’Agostini, a local New Jersey native, graduated from St. Benedict’s Prep in Newark.  He then attended Johns Hopkins University, where he played football and received his bachelor’s degree in molecular biology. While at Johns Hopkins, he authored two academic papers, which were published in The American Journal of Pathology. These papers were coauthored with the eminent pathologist, Dr. Robert Heppinstall.

Upon graduation, Dr. D’Agostini attended Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. He then received his orthopedic training at Georgetown University, where he was chosen as the chief administrative resident in his last year. While at Georgetown, he received extensive training in joint replacement and in sports medicine. The Orthopedic Department at Georgetown was responsible for the care of the Washington Redskins, the Washington Bullets, the Georgetown Hoyas, the George Washington Colonials, and the Maryland Terrapins of the University of Maryland.

After his time in Washington, Dr. D’Agostini relocated to New Jersey where he first practiced in Basking Ridge and then Bedminster, where he has practiced for the past 20 years.
