Specialties

Physician assistants / nurse practitioners

OrthoVirginia Offices

Dr. David Landy is a hip and knee replacement specialist. He went into orthopedics because of the ability to use medicine and surgery to help patients not just live longer but live better. For Dr. Landy, the most satisfying part of being an orthopedic surgeon is helping patients understand their orthopedic condition and treatment options so that he and the patient can arrive at the best treatment decision for them. Outside of work, he spends most of his free time helping his wife with their three girls. When he’s not with his family, he enjoys reading, local museums and sight-seeing.
