Fox Valley Orthopedics Expands to Accommodate Demand

Fox Valley Orthopedics announces the addition of a new orthopedic sports medicine surgeon, Dr. James P. Sostak II, to its growing team of physicians.    

Dr. Sostak specializes in treating all types of sports-related injuries, including trauma to the shoulder, knee, ankle, and foot. He will begin seeing patients on Sept. 1.

Dr. Sostak received his Sports Medicine Orthopedic Surgery Fellowship from the prestigious Southern California Orthopedic Institute in Van Nuys after completing his residency at the Medical College of Affiliated Hospitals in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He is board eligible.   

With numerous publications under his belt, including having written a book chapter for The Throwing Shoulder, Dr. Sostak is an orthopedic sports medicine expert.

A licensed surgeon in Illinois, Wisconsin and California, Sostak has been a team physician for Milwaukee Public Schools High School Varsity Football, NCAA Division III Men’s Hockey at Concordia University in Wisconsin, LA Valley Community College Football, and for Canyon High School Varsity Football in Canyon Country California.

No stranger to sports himself, Sostak played professional baseball for the Illinois Rockford Riverhawks. And, during his four years as a member of the Benedictine University baseball team, Dr. Sostak was voted most improved player and most valuable player during two seasons. An honored professional baseball player on NCAA’s Verizon Academic All-American Baseball Team, he set the current NCAA men’s baseball record for most consecutive hits with fifteen.

“My wife and I are honored to have this opportunity to become part of such a lively, thriving community,” says Dr. Sostak. “I’ve dedicated my life to sports and orthopedic care, FVO is a perfect match for both my professional and personal interests.”
