Meet Dr. William Ulmer, Jr.

I received my medical degree from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed residency training in orthopaedics at Memorial Hospital. I completed an additional year of fellowship training in sports medicine and arthroscopic surgery at Orthopaedic Research of Virginia. While completing my fellowship training, I had the opportunity to provide care for all levels of athletes, from the Special Olympians to the Washington Redskins.

I have been practicing orthopaedics since 2006. I am a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon with special expertise in sports medicine and arthroscopic procedures of the shoulder and knee. As a sports medicine surgeon, I have extensive experience in ACL reconstruction, meniscus and cartilage repair, rotator cuff repair and shoulder instability. I was the first surgeon in Pennsylvania to perform the new BEAR ACL procedure. As an Associate Master Arthroscopy instructor, I have taught arthroscopic procedures to surgeons from around the world at the Orthopedic Learning Center in Chicago, Illinois. I am the head team physician for the York College athletics department. I am also the team physician for a number of York County high schools.

My goal is to keep you healthy and active, whether you are an up and coming all-star, an aging weekend warrior, or someone just looking for a minimally invasive approach.
