“Since performing cases overseas I use less implant density than did before I started traveling to China,” Dr. Roye in a Becker’s Spine Review article. “When I’m designing an implant there I have to think about the fact that families are paying for each screw in a way that doesn’t happen here. That’s the difference between having a child treated or not treated, or returning to the operating room multiple times for the growing system, depending on how you place the implant.”
Dr. Roye is certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery. His clinical interests include degenerative spine, kyphosis, pediatric spine deformities, limb lengthening, scoliosis and pediatric hip disorders.
Dr. Roye earned his medical degree at College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University in New York. He completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center in New York. He has also completed a fellowship in pediatric orthopedic surgery at The Hospital of Sick Children in Toronto, Canada.
