Pierre Tamer, MD
Fellowship-Trained Orthopaedic Surgeon
Dr. Pierre Tamer is a hip and knee specialist. He partners with patients across the full spectrum of care – offering personalized guidance on physical rehabilitation, medications, injections, and lifestyle strategies before considering surgery. If surgery becomes the most appropriate or effective option, he is highly trained in minimally invasive hip and knee replacements and advanced surgical techniques, with a focus on restoring mobility and helping patients return to the activities that matter most, whether that’s playing with grandkids, returning to sports, traveling, or simply walking without pain.
Dr. Tamer was born in Los Angeles and later raised in Bakersfield, California. After years of medical training and surgical practice across the country, including UCLA, Case Western Reserve University, UCSF – St. Mary’s, and Lenox Hill Hospital, he is honored to return home to serve the community that shaped him.
In his free time, Dr. Tamer enjoys the ocean, nature, tennis, music, and spending time with his wife and two daughters. Above all, he is committed to building long-term, meaningful connections with his patients and helping them reclaim their independence and quality of life.
