Personal Notes about Dr. Abeyta
Dr. Abeyta was born and raised in the bay area and an avid sports enthusiast with a love for football, basketball, and baseball. He loves international travel and enjoys hiking and exploring. Dr. Abeyta has three wonderful children that have all grown up in the local communities. He continues to volunteer his time with the San Mateo High school football team and enjoys caring for the athletes in the local community.
After decades of physical activity, and due to a congenital problem, I actually required bilateral hip surgery myself. Through my experience as a patient I have a unique perspective, one which has confirmed the importance of preparation, a dedicated surgical team, and patience with rehabilitation.

“Dr. Abeyta performed total knee replacement surgery on both my right (November 2020) and left knees (October 2024). I could not be happier with the outcome of my surgeries. The relentless arthritic pain is completely gone, and I am back to doing all my favorite activities. Dr. Abeyta is both highly skilled and very kind. He fully explained the procedures, answered my questions, and followed my progress through complete recovery. He and his PA JC Chavez are simply the best orthopedic surgical team ever. I am so grateful for their fantastic care.”
