About us

Zayde A. Radwan, MD, is a board-certified and fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon with expertise in hip and knee reconstructive surgery. He prides himself on delivering excellent and compassionate care to obtain the best outcomes with the least amount of discomfort.
Radwan concentrates on primary (first-time) and revision (redo) total hip and total knee replacements, as well as partial knee replacements and hip resurfacing. He performs total hip replacements through both anterior (front) and posterior (back) approaches.
His practice encompasses the treatment of all forms of arthritis, continued pain following a joint replacement, developmental disorders of all ages that require joint replacement, fractures with or without the involvement of a joint replacement, and complex infections involving joint replacements. When clinically applicable, he is experienced in using technology, such as robotics and navigation, to aid with his procedures.
Radwan is an assistant professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston.
Radwan joined the UT Physicians orthopedics team from the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Prior to his fellowship, he attended medical school and completed his residency at McGovern Medical School. He graduated summa cum laude from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor in Belton, Texas, with undergraduate degrees in cell biology and psychology.
His professional memberships include the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons. Furthermore, he has an interest in surgical education and research. During both his residency and fellowship, he participated in several clinical research projects with a focus on trauma, venous thromboembolism (blood clots), and outcomes following revision joint replacements. He continues to investigate questions involving total joint replacements as faculty for the McGovern Medical School Adult Reconstruction Fellowship and the Center for Orthopedic Research, Innovation and Training (CORIT Lab).
A native Houstonian, Radwan grew up in the southeastern suburb of Deer Park. Growing up, he spent much of his time on the football field. It was his experiences as a patient that inspired him to seek a career in orthopedics and help care for others.
Radwan is married to his college sweetheart, and they have two young daughters. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his family, the outdoors, sports, and taking his dog Greyson on walks.
