Born in Nashville, Dr. Rubin was interested in orthopedics from a young age. He grew up watching his father work as a general orthopedic surgeon, which inspired him to pursue a medical career.

After six years in Houston, Dr. Rubin spent his fellowship in Hip & Knee Adult Reconstruction at the Mississippi Sports Medicine and Orthopedic Center. His journey has led him to AOA Orthopedic Specialists in Arlington and Dallas, where he aspires to offer the highest quality care to his community.
Dr. Rubin’s professional mission is guided by a profound sense of responsibility. He believes in providing his patients with the same level of care that he would offer to his own loved ones.
