Following the recent news that St. Vincent Charity Medical Center in Cleveland selected Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center to provide orthopaedic care to their patients, eight orthopaedic surgeons previously affiliated with St. Vincent Charity Medical Center will now care for patients at Crystal Clinic.

This includes Crystal Clinic QuickCare for the immediate care of orthopaedic and sports injuries, physical therapy, and the new, award-winning Crystal Clinic inpatient hospital, which is equipped with today’s latest advanced technologies in orthopaedic surgery and an environment to support healing.
“St. Vincent Charity Medical Center has played an essential role in caring for the greater Cleveland community for more than 150 years, and we are humbled and grateful to help our colleagues in orthopaedic surgery continue this legacy of care,” said Paul Fleissner, M.D., chairman of the Crystal Clinic Board of Directors. “We are pleased to welcome them, as well as nurses, physical therapists, imaging technologists and other clinicians from St. Vincent Charity Medical Center.”
Crystal Clinic welcomes the following orthopedic surgeons to its medical staff: Nicholas Callahan, D.O.; George Kellis, M.D.; Louis Keppler, M.D.; John Krebs, M.D.; Matthew Levy, M.D.; Amar Mutnal, M.D.; Brad Picha, M.D.; D. Philip Stickney, M.D. and Bernard Stulberg, M.D.
