Adam I. Harris, MD Adam I. Harris, MD

Dr Harris graduated cum laude from Yale University with distinction in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry before attending medical school at the University of California, San Diego. There, he was elected to the A. Baird Hasting’s Society, the school’s honor society. Work that he started there resulted a few years later, in United States and Canadian patents for a knee brace primarily designed for children with muscular dystrophy.

Dr. Harris then completed his orthopædic training at Rush Presbyterian St. Luke’s Medical Center in Chicago. After his residency, he completed a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction (Joint Replacement) under Dr. Jorge Galante, and a research fellowship addressing issues in the biochemistry of articular (joint) cartilage. For four and a half years, he also taught orthopædic surgical residents who followed in the program at Rush Presbyterian St. Luke’s Medical Center.
