About
Dr. William F. Sherman is a leading orthopaedic surgeon and researcher whose work is at the forefront of robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty. His primary research focuses on the utilization, outcomes, and perceptions of robotic technology in total hip and knee replacement. Dr. Sherman is perhaps best known for his landmark survey of the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS) membership, which provided critical insights into the motivations and barriers surrounding robotic surgery adoption. This influential work, along with his large-scale database study comparing robotic to conventional total knee arthroplasty—both garnering over 75 citations each—has helped define the evidence base for this rapidly evolving field. He has also investigated the role of advanced technology in preventing instability after total hip arthroplasty and developed novel techniques, such as fulcrum positioning for balancing on robotic platforms. Through his rigorous, high-impact studies, Dr. Sherman is shaping the future of precision joint replacement, offering surgeons and patients a clearer understanding of the true benefits and limitations of robotic assistance in orthopaedics.
