A second office is also available at 37 rue Molitor, in the 16th arrondissement, for greater convenience depending on where you're staying or living.

About

Welcome to My Practice

As a specialist in orthopedic and trauma surgery, my goal is to help you regain your mobility, relieve your pain, and get you back to the activities you love — using the most advanced and least invasive surgical techniques available today.

I was trained in the demanding environment of the Paris University Hospitals. Following my residency, I had the privilege of refining my expertise in key clinical leadership positions: Clinical Chief (Chef de Clinique) at Cochin Hospital, Paris, then Assistant Clinical Chief (Chef de Clinique Assistant) at Versailles Hospital. These years in top-tier teaching hospitals gave me extensive experience handling both complex traumatic injuries and elective specialized surgery.

Google Review

★★★★★

"After a serious climbing fall and a delayed response from the emergency department, Dr Deloin took the time to make a careful diagnosis, then performed ankle ligament surgery to put it all back together :) No pain 6 months later, back to basic sports with no discomfort. Still waiting a bit before skating and surfing again ;)"
