She is from Illinois and attended University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign prior to graduating from Northwestern University The Feinberg School Of Medicine in 1999. She moved to California to complete her sports medicine training at Kaiser Fontana and has made California her home. She specializes in sports medicine, pediatric sports medicine, and regenerative medicine. She treats high level athletes to the everyday athlete who is just trying to get some exercise and enjoy their lives! Dr. Rolnik is board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine and Sports Medicine and is a professional member of the American Academy of Family Physicians and American Medical Society for Sports Medicine. What sets Dr. Rolnik apart from many other doctors is the time to spends with her patients. She listens carefully to each patient's history and delves into the root cause of her patients' problems and takes steps to correct identified risk factors. She provides an integrative treatment plan than often includes rehabilitation, nutrition modifications and various traditional medical treatments. Her goal is to keep her patients active for life! She is an expert at Diagnostic Ultrasound and performs most of her injections utilizing Ultrasound guidance.

Provided by Doctor.comWish I could give ten stars. I developed complications from surgery and wasn't getting help from my surgeon or primary care. i found Dr Rolnik on the internet and booked a consultation. I was amazed by how she actually listened and didn't rush. She correctly diagnosed the problem when no one else even came close and put me on the right path to healing. I highly recommend Dr. Rolnik for orthopedic issues.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Rolnik has extensive knowledge in sports medicine and offers alternative options for sports tendon injuries. Its rare to find a doctor of this caliber-- she offers the most cutting edge treatments. As an aging athlete, I don't want surgery and she took the time to explain all my options. She's a great human--and a caring, compassionate and personable doctor. Great experience and results.

Provided by Doctor.comI am 63, but incredibly active - I run, hike, bike, lift - and was having a number of issues with knees, back and shoulder. Dr. Rolnik has helped me assess my issues (arthritis, meniscus tear, shoulder tear, worn out cartilage, osteoporosis) Yikes - growing old sucks! At least that is what I thought until I saw Dr. Rolnik! She recommended several regenerative treatments and physical therapy and I am getting back to the old me! I want to hike and bike until I am 100, and with Dr. Rolnik at my side, there is no doubt I will be doing my favorite activities for many years to come. For those Type A personalities who don't want to give up your sports, go see Dr. Rolnik!

Provided by Doctor.comMy previous doctor told me to get a knee replacement. Dr. Rolnik gave me options for standard and alternative treatments and explained them each extensively (never in a rush for time) along with the pros and cons. We looked at conventional treatments, A2M, stem cells, (Lipogems), PRP, Fat Grafting, etc. . . We also looked at nutritional services with the nutritionist, Leasa Woods at Remedy Sports Regenerative Medicine.
End result, my knees feel like they did 20 years ago; I don't see a knee replacement in my near future anymore.
From initial visit, to follow up care Dr. Rolnik is hands down the best medical experience I have ever had. I wish Dr. Rolnik could be my doctor for all my medical needs.
