Careers

“I started with Commonwealth Orthopaedics in August 2002.  Since coming here I have developed a great working relationship with co-workers and physicians.  I have seen many changes in the past nine years; however, our Mission Statement continues to be accomplished, thereby providing the greatest contribution to our profession.  Commonwealth Orthopaedics exists to provide comprehensive, high quality, cost effective care to our patients.”

“I joined Commonwealth back in 2006 and every step of the way since then beginning has been rewarding.  From learning all there is to know about Ortho and healthcare, to making stellar professional relationships with such a great staff and group of physicians…  It’s really nice to be able to wake up in the morning and be excited to get to work and have a smile on my face on my drive in.  Working here has and will continue to be a true pleasure.”

“Shortly after moving to Northern Virginia from Texas in 2000 I joined Commonwealth as a Biller. Commonwealth has allowed and encouraged me to grow along with them. They encouraged me in my efforts to obtain my credentials and to learn as much as possible about healthcare coding, billing and compliance. Eleven years later Commonwealth and I are still growing. Over the years I have been rewarded with respect and the knowledge that employees here are appreciated. We have some of the best trained staff in the area because Commonwealth believes in Quality! Another thing I loved when I first joined that still is true today is the feeling of family. And like any other family, we celebrate weddings, babies, graduations, anniversaries, birthdays, and support each other in times of sorrow. I can’t imagine being anywhere else until I retire!”

“I first started with Commonwealth in January, 2008 working in our Insurance Verification department. After experiencing the behind the scenes tasks of insurance and benefits, I became the surgical scheduler then eventually fulfilled the duties of Dr. Sarah Pettrone’s medical secretary in Reston. My placements in those duties led me to take on the position as the Credentialing Coordinator of our practice. With hard work, dedication and the personable skills I’ve carried at Commonwealth over the few years, has led me to where I’m at today. The opportunities, employee benefits, atmosphere and co-workers make Commonwealth a positive place to work. Coming to work every day with a smile on my face is a wonderful feeling.”

It's been great to experience another avenue in the Sports Medicine field. Commonwealth is a very welcoming and supportive organization and I'm proud to be a part of it.”

“Commonwealth Surgical Center is the best place I have worked. This is the first place I have ever worked where you are considered more than just an employee. I feel like everyone really cares about me. I enjoy coming to work and the people I work with are the best, and our physicians are the best I have ever worked with. I drive an hour and half to get to work so that must tell you how much I like working here. You are given every chance to advance in your field if you choose to do so or to learn something new. I also recommend our Surgery Center for anyone looking for a job or as a patient.”

“Working as a Physical Therapist for Commonwealth Orthopaedics for over eight years has provided me with a solid frame of reference for the benefits of being employed by a physician-owned practice.  Frequent communication between referring doctors and physical therapists is a key component in providing patients with quality care.  By having direct access to the Commonwealth doctors, I can easily gain further insight into patient problems, leading to more effective treatment.  There are numerous therapists employed by Commonwealth, all of whom treat patients with the highest level of care.  This network provides great resources from which to learn and grow professionally.  When it comes to staying on top in the field of orthopaedic physical therapy, there is no match for the Commonwealth experience.”

They believe my success will also contribute to the success of the practice. When it comes to patient care, our physicians and staff exhibit the tremendous desire and compassion for patient’s recovery and welfare.
