Strong Bodies. Active Lives.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of caring for athletes and active individuals at every stage of life. From young athletes just discovering a love of sports to adults focused on staying strong and independent as they age, my goal is to help people build healthier bodies through movement, prevention, and evidence-based care.

About Dr. Trentacosta

My career has always centered around one simple idea: helping people stay active.

As Board-Certified orthopedic surgeon with fellowship training in both pediatric and adult sports medicine, I've had the unique opportunity to care for athletes and active individuals across every stage of life. From children learning to navigate sports safely, to adolescent athletes pursuing their goals, to women navigating the musculoskeletal changes of perimenopause and aging, the challenges may look different, but the goal is often the same: staying healthy enough to keep doing what you love.

While I treat injuries when they happen, my greatest passion is helping people prevent them in the first place.

Because orthopedic health isn't just about treating injuries. It's about helping people stay active for life.
