He works with patients not only to enhance health and fitness, but also to prevent and manage injury and illness. His knowledge and expertise in sports medicine emphasizes wellness and the role of exercise in promoting a healthy lifestyle.

Dr. Ferderber earned his bachelor’s degree in biochemistry and molecular biology from Penn State, graduating with highest distinction.

When not working, Dr. Ferderber is “typically outside whenever possible, whether it’s biking, running, or going on hikes with my golden retriever.” He also enjoys playing cards and board games with family and friends and is refining his amateur chef skills in the kitchen.

    I had never.met Dr. Ferderber and had a little trepidation about the whole process. I found him to have really good "bedside manner" and immediately put me at ease. He explained everything to me in thorough detail and patiently answered all my questions before moving forward with the procedure. I never felt pushed.

    Dr. Ferdeber is very caring. He listens to everything you have to say, never rushes you. Explains everything in great detail offers many choices. He also doesn't push surgeries or anything extreme. He also always puts himself in your shoes and offers what he would do. Goes above and beyond. Not many doctors out there like him, or Mallory Schaeffer, anymore, and when you find them, you better hold onto them! Don't let the good ones get away!
