About
Steven Chudik
Board certified in orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine and fellowship trained in shoulder surgery and sports medicine, Dr. Steven Chudik is a pioneer in arthroscopic shoulder and knee surgery for “athletes” of all abilities. From budding and professional athletes to weekend warriors and weekday workers, Dr. Chudik prides himself on providing individualized care and developing a treatment plan that is right for each patient’s lifestyle and functional goals. Practicing at Hinsdale Orthopaedics since 2002, Dr. Chudik specializes in arthroscopic repair and revisions of shoulder rotator cuff, labral and cartilage tears and knee ACL, ligament, meniscus, and cartilage injuries. Dr. Chudik developed and patented several advanced arthroscopic techniques, instruments, and implants to improve patient outcomes, including arthroscopically rebuilding a broken glenoid (shoulder socket), resurfacing (replacing) a shoulder joint, repairing shoulder labrums after shoulder dislocations, revising previously failed ACL surgeries, and repairing ACL injuries in children with open growth plates.
A graduate of the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, Dr. Chudik continues his academic pursuits as a clinical assistant professor for Loyola University of Chicago where he mentors honors medical students in research and orthopaedics. Dr. Chudik has established an orthopaedic research and education foundation, OTRF, that funds unbiased orthopaedic research, conferences, and seminars for other healthcare professionals, a newsletter, and an athletic training residency program, all to promote safe, active, and healthy lifestyles.
Dr. Chudik is an active researcher, collaborating with scientists at Argonne National Laboratory and Hines VA Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Laboratory to help develop new and improved orthopaedic treatments for his patients. He is an author of numerous papers and patents and continues to strive to develop new, innovative, and minimally invasive shoulder and knee surgical procedures. He is a reviewer for two prestigious orthopaedic journals; The American Journal of Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery.
He serves as a faculty instructor for the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the American Shoulder and Elbow Society, and the Arthroscopy Association of North America. He also serves as team physician for the USA Swimming Sports Medicine and Science Network High Performance Team.
