Hayden N. Box, MD

Originally from Texas, Dr. Box first fell in love with New England as a student at Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA. There is he met his future wife Virginia, who is currently a dentist practicing in Woburn, MA. He said that while he and his wife lived in Texas during his five-year orthopaedic surgery residency, “We always missed New England.” His time as a joint replacement fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, MA solidified his commitment to New England. “My wife and I decided that this was our home, a place we wanted to put down roots and invest in the community,” he said.

When the opportunity to come to Essex Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine arose, Dr. Box said it was an easy decision to join what he termed “a well-respected practice with great surgeons.” Specializing in hip and knee replacement and revision joint replacement, Dr. Box will work closely with Dr. Thomas E. Hoerner.
