Dr. Lucius Pomerantz in Chula Vista's Eastlake district is a board-certified orthopedic and hand surgeon at Synergy Orthopedic Specialists on Lane Avenue, dual-certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery in both orthopedic surgery and hand surgery. Post-operative hand and wrist rehabilitation patients progress through structured occupational and physical therapy protocols at Performance Plus Physical Therapy - Otay Ranch, whose upper-extremity specialists coordinate return-to-function timelines with the surgeon's post-fixation milestones. Pomerantz earned his MD from Albany Medical College in 2008, completed orthopedic surgery residency as chief resident at UC San Diego, and pursued a hand and upper-extremity fellowship at the Campbell Clinic in Memphis, Tennessee. Pre-surgical blood panels and coagulation studies route through Fastest Labs of Chula Vista for rapid turnaround ahead of scheduled procedures. As team physician for the San Diego Gulls hockey team and a credentialed ringside physician for combat sports events, Pomerantz authored multiple chapters on upper-extremity and lower-extremity injuries in the Association of Ringside Physicians Manual for Mixed Martial Arts, bridging sports medicine field care with arthroscopic and microsurgical reconstruction of the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
