Built on trust

We connect orthopedic surgeons and facilities with the most capable surgical physician assistants in New York and New Jersey.

We saw a gap in
the sterile field

SurgiLink was built on a simple, urgent need. Surgeons and facilities required orthopedic-trained physician assistants who could step in without hesitation. We built a rigorous credentialing process and a responsive team to make that happen.

Deep orthopedic focus

Rigorous credentialing

Human connection first

How we operate

Three commitments guide every placement we make and every relationship we build.

We credential for the specialty, not just the license

Every surgical PA in our network is orthopedic-trained and rigorously vetted. They arrive ready for the case, not a learning curve.

A promise kept when the pressure is highest

Urgent call-out or planned leave, we respond fast and deliver. The provider shows up credentialed, prepared, and on time.

Technology serves the relationship, not the other way around

We match providers to facilities where they truly fit. Clear communication and mutual respect come before everything.

Experience that
belongs in the OR.

SurgiLink brings together experienced physician assistants with deep backgrounds in orthopedics, surgery, sports medicine, and complex clinical care. Our providers are selected for the expertise, professionalism, and readiness surgical teams depend on.

Built with the realities of the OR in mind.

Robert Yuen, PA-C founded SurgiLink around a focused idea: surgical teams should be able to access orthopedic-trained, credentialed PAs quickly, without relying on general staffing. That same focus shapes SurgiLink today. Specialized orthopedic coverage, responsive coordination, and a more direct connection between the facilities that need support and the professionals ready to provide it.
