About me

As a specialist in both the Sports Medicine Center and the Joint Replacement Center, Dr. Colizza specializes in arthroscopic surgery of the knee and shoulder for sports injuries and ligament reconstruction, minimally invasive hip and knee replacement surgery, and hip resurfacing. As a former competitor in both rugby football and rowing crew at the national level, Dr. Colizza has a keen understanding of the demands and expectations of the high-caliber athlete. After obtaining his medical degree and completing residency training in orthopedic surgery at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, Dr. Colizza finished his fellowship in reconstructive joint surgery and sports medicine at the Insall Scott Kelly Institute for Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine in New York. He has completed a preceptorship in hip resurfacing with Mr. Derek McMinn in Birmingham, England, and is a recipient of the Zimmer-AOA Fellows Award, receiving national recognition for his research into the replacement of arthritic knees. Dr. Colizza recently stepped down as Chief of the Sports Medicine Service at Morristown Medical Center and as President of the New Jersey Orthopaedic Society. He is now the Chief of the Joint Replacement Service at Morristown Medical Center and serves on the Board of Councilors of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Dr. Colizza is a caring and competent physician who holds the well-being of his patients in the highest regard, and he has been honored as one of the region’s premier doctors through NJ Top Docs.
