John D. MacGillivray, MD

Fellowship Trained & Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon & Sports Medicine Surgeon

Dr. John MacGillivray is an Associate Attending Orthopedic Surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery and New York-Presbyterian Hospital. He currently serves as Team Physician to the US Ski Team. He has also served as an Orthopedic Consultant for the New York Giants, the National Hockey League Players' Association, Team Physician for St. John's University, The New York Saints Professional Lacrosse Team and the US Snow Boarding Team. He is also a member of the Board of Directors at the Carlos Otis Clinic, Stratton Mountain in Vermont.

Dr. MacGillivray has developed new techniques involving arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (the Mac stitch), labral repair of the shoulder, and ligament reconstruction of the knee. He also has a clinical and scientific interest in cartilage restoration of the knee and shoulder and has written numerous articles and book chapters on problems of the shoulder, knee and elbow. He has won the prestigious Neer Award once and has been nominated twice for his research of rotator cuff disease.

On a personal note, Dr. MacGillivray followed a path in medicine, a cornerstone of his upbringing being one of seven surgeons, one medical doctor and two registered nurses in his immediate family. Dr. MacGillivray demonstrated his acumen for medicine early, graduating valedictorian at Tufts Medical School and then training at the world’s most complete and competitive residency and fellowship program, HSS, Hospital for Special Surgery. Dr. MacGillivray combined his love for sports as a highly competitive accomplished athlete with his passion for medicine when he opted for a career as an orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine. He has a unique understanding of each patient’s desire to recover and perform at peak performance. His philosophy is to quickly get each patient “back in the game”.
