David Weintritt, MD, FACS, is a board-certified breast surgeon and founder of the National Breast Center Foundation. He focuses on breast cancer and is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive care available. He firmly believes that every patient is unique and deserves a treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.
Dr. Weintritt completed his undergraduate and medical education at the University of Florida and surgery residency at New Hanover Regional Medical Center in North Carolina. He then served in the United States Air Force at Andrews Air Force Base. During his tenure as an Air Force surgeon, he worked with surgical oncologists at Walter Reed Army and Bethesda Naval Hospitals in offering sentinel node biopsy, a procedure that significantly reduces breast cancer surgery risk, and is now standard in breast cancer surgery. From there, he entered into private practice in Annapolis, MD, and as part of the hospital’s new comprehensive breast program, he gained experience in breast ultrasound and minimally invasive approaches for managing breast disease. In 2003, Dr. Weintritt opened his own practice in Alexandria, VA, bringing new programs and breast surgery techniques to Northern Virginia. Dr. Weintritt also founded the National Breast Center Foundation that funds breast cancer screening and treatment for underinsured women in the DC region. Dr. Weintritt is a perennial Washingtonian Top Doctor chosen by his peers and continues to focus on clinical research and development of new breast cancer procedures. He was also named as Healthcare Provider of the Year in 2025 by the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce.
