Orthopedic surgery or orthopedics is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic surgeons use both surgical and nonsurgical means to treat musculoskeletal trauma, sports injuries, degenerative diseases, infections, tumors, and congenital disorders.

From casting a broken bone to surgery for a complex orthopedic condition, it is important to find an orthopedic specialist who provides you with the best possible care. Our surgeons are leaders in the field and experts in the use of innovative techniques and minimally invasive procedures to correct bone and musculoskeletal disorders.

Matthew J. Enna, M.D.

Dr. Enna has unique experience in advanced techniques in arthroscopic, hand, and trauma surgery. He is one of a select few physicians in California to achieve subspecialty certification in both hand surgery and sports medicine.

An interest in both the humanities and pre-medical education led him to Washington University in Saint Louis, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in English Literature in 1997. He spent his senior year of college at Oxford University, where he studied Shakespeare, Dickens and Leonardo da Vinci. He matriculated at Tulane University School of Medicine in 1997. Upon graduating from Tulane in 2001, he moved to Providence, Rhode Island, where he performed his general surgery internship and orthopedic surgery residency at Brown University. After completing his residency in 2006, he performed a one-year fellowship in orthopedic trauma at Brown. During his training at Brown, he was an assistant team physician for the Brown University varsity football, hockey and lacrosse teams, and for the Providence Bruins hockey team.

After his trauma fellowship at Brown, Dr. Enna completed an additional fellowship — in hand and microsurgery — at UCLA. In 2008, he joined the Sansum Clinic in Santa Barbara where he gained his valuable experience in advanced techniques in arthroscopic, hand, and trauma surgery.
