Stephen M. Howell
Stephen M. Howell, MD is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon practicing in Sacramento and Lodi. He joined Adventist Health Lodi Memorial with more than three decades of experience as a clinician, researcher, and innovator in total knee replacement (TKR), anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, and meniscal surgery. Dr. Howell’s clinical practice focuses on the treatment of degenerative processes and sports-related injuries to the knee. He performs more than 500 TKRs and 100 ACL reconstructions per year. Dr. Howell also created the kinematic alignment method, which caused a paradigm shift in TKR. His published experience demonstrates that patients report less pain, a quicker recovery, better pain relief, better function, better flexion, and a more natural feeling knee when treated with this method. Dr. Howell is also an Adjunct Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of California, Davis. He has published more than 140 scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals.
