Meet Peter Gold, M.D.

Dr. Peter Gold is one of Panorama’s specialists in adult hip and knee arthritis and joint replacement surgery. As a third-generation physician, he brings a deep understanding of medicine and patient care to his practice, specializing in complex joint reconstruction procedures.

Dr. Gold’s expertise focuses on adult hip and knee reconstruction, utilizing the latest techniques in joint replacement surgery. His approach combines advanced surgical skills with comprehensive patient education to achieve optimal outcomes for those suffering from debilitating arthritis and joint deterioration.

Dr. Gold’s guiding philosophy centers on deeply listening to patients and understanding what drives their quality of life. His approach was profoundly shaped by a personal near-death experience in 2015, which transformed his perspective on patient care. “Having survived a near-death experience and becoming a patient myself completely changed the type of doctor I am today,” he explains. “I understand how scary it can be to be a patient. I believe it is an important part of a surgeon’s job to relieve this fear and give their patients confidence based in knowledge.”

In addition to informing his approach to patient care, Dr. Gold’s first-hand experience with gun violence inspired him to co-found and run Strong City, a non-profit that, since 2017, has provided resources to community-based organizations in New Orleans to empower underserved youth. 

Dr. Gold enjoys spending time with his family, golfing, snowboarding, yoga, traveling, and listening to live music.
