Stolarski Ranks Among Nation's Highest Volume Surgeons

Business

Sarasota Orthopedic Surgeon Edward Stolarski ranks among the nation’s top three highest-volume physicians for hip and knee replacements, and performs more overall hip and knee surgeries than any other physician in Florida, according to an independent analysis of Medicare claims released this month by Dexur. Practicing primarily at Sarasota Memorial Hospital, Stolarski performed 509 hip and knee replacements for Medicare patients in fiscal year 2016—roughly 1 percent of all hip and knee replacements in Medicare patients across the nation, Dexur researchers said. The New York-based hospital research and analytics company evaluated Medicare inpatient claims data from nearly 10,000 physicians across the nation. Dexur researchers analyze discharge volumes, along with other quality metrics, including length-of-stay and readmission rates, to help patients make informed decisions on where to go and who to see for medical care. Dexur also studied volumes for all hip and knee surgeries among Florida Medicare patients, noting that Stolarski led the state with 575 surgeries. Stolarski currently serves as chief of Sarasota Memorial’s orthopedics department.
