Brett McCoy, MD, is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with a subspecialty certification in sports medicine. His practice focuses on disorders of the knee and shoulder with a particular interest in robotic partial and total knee replacements and the arthroscopic treatment of meniscus injuries and rotator cuff tears. Outside of surgery, Dr. McCoy cares for a range of musculoskeletal conditions, from soft tissue injuries to fractures and arthritis.
A Cleveland native, Dr. McCoy joined the University Hospitals / Center for Orthopedics in 2020 after eight years in practice, most recently serving as division head of orthopedics at Cleveland Clinic Marymount Hospital.

His book chapter publications include cartilage transplantation, ligament injuries of the knee and patella and patellar tendon injuries.

Excellent Doctor, gave excellent care. Would recommend to anyone.
Doctor McCoy saw me because I have osteoarthritis in my left knee, and together we put together a treatment plan, on a specific timeline, that includes maintenance on my knee that gets me through my Spring and Summer work schedule until he can do a partial replacement on the knee sometime in the autumn of 2025. At all times, Dr. McCoy was absolutely professional; and along with explaining the physical mechanics of my knee problem, he was also very personable, very attentive to what I said to him, as well as being sympathetic and compassionate. (As a side note, Dr. McCoy's assistant, ***, was also all of these things, too).I left the appointment having great confidence in Dr. McCoy and his staff, and feeling very secure that when the time comes for the partial replacement surgery, I'll be in the best of hands. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to refer others who require orthopedic care to Dr. McCoy and his staff. I was very, very satisfied with my experience with him and his staff. Sincerely, ***
Efficient no nonsense
