Dear Patients

It is with great regret that I inform you of my decision to leave Orthopedic Specialists. As of 10/1/11, I will be assuming the role of Director of Joint Replacement Surgery at Temple University and joining the staff of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Temple University Hospital. It is hard to believe that nine years have passed since I came to Orthopaedic Specialists and Bryn Mawr Hospital. It has been my pleasure to be a part of a great Orthopaedic group and an outstanding hospital. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here at Bryn Mawr and it has been an honor to take care of you as well as your family members and friends over the years.

After October 1st, I will no longer be seeing patients at any of my current offices and at this point I am no longer scheduling elective surgeries at Bryn Mawr Hospital. However, I will continue to see patients in the area. I will be happy to assist you in arranging continued orthopaedic care either with one of excellent doctors at Orthopaedic Specialists or with me in Temple’s offices in Oaks, Fort Washington or Philadelphia.

The staff at Orthopaedic Specialists will gladly assist you in the coordination of your care and if need be, will provide you with records at your request to ensure this. Please feel free to contact me with your questions or concerns. After October 1st, I can be reached at (215) 707-2111.

Thank you for allowing me to be a doctor to you, your family and friends. It has been a real pleasure to take care of you. I certainly will miss being a part of the Bryn Mawr Hospital community. Please wish me luck in my new endeavor.

Yours truly

Matthew P. Lorei, MD
