September 22 2020 – Dr. Dror Paley, medical director of the Paley Orthopedic and Spine Institute at St. Mary’s Medical Center & the Palm Beach Children’s Hospital, is one of the most influential business leaders in the state after being named as one of the Florida 500 for 2020, by Florida Trend magazine. These 500 executives are selected based on extensive contacts in regional business circles, hundreds of interviews and months of research, culminating in a highly selective biographical guide to the people who really run Florida. A variety of sources are used to produce the list, including input from executives of economic development organizations, professional associations and others who know the communities, industries and the state well. The Paley Orthopedic and Spine Institute was founded in 2009, and is one of the world’s leading facilities in innovative limb lengthening procedures. Parents from all over the world bring their children to the institute to find treatment for congenital orthopedic problems. Dr. Paley has saved more than 5,000 children’s limbs from amputation over the past decade and through the Unlimbited Foundation at the Paley Institute, it has provided financial aid to dozens of families that come to Florida for medical treatment.
