About Us

Congress Orthopaedic Associates, Inc. is a highly respected and progressive orthopaedic group dedicated to quality patient care, cutting-edge research and comprehensive patient education. 

Congress Orthopaedic Associates began its relationship with the families of Pasadena and the Greater San Gabriel Valley over 40 years ago. In 1961 C.W. Lambert, M.D. and his brother Ross Lambert, M.D., both orthopaedic surgeons, began their practice on Green Street in Pasadena. Establishing a standard of hard work and commitment to their patients, they quickly became the physicians of choice for the community. Their practice and reputations grew and began to attract applications from the best young surgeons seeking affiliation.
