LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Actress Sofia Vergara was photographed with famous orthopedic surgeon Dr Justin Saliman on a date night recently.
The couple was spotted in Beverly Hills while going for dinner on October 20, 2023, reported Page Six.
Vergara slayed her date night look in a black lace corset top, plum-colored slacks, and black heels, while Salisman wore a casual shirt and blue jeans.
The 51-year-old star split from her husband and actor Joe Manganiello in July 2023.
Who is Justin Saliman?
Based in Beverly Hills, Justin Saliman is reportedly a "Stanford sports medicine trained orthopedic surgeon operating out of Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles."
After graduating from the University of Colorado School of Medicine, he completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at St Luke's Roosevelt Hospital Center of Columbia University in New York.
According to Saliman's website, "Nobody has more experience sewing meniscus tears back together than Dr. Saliman. He is specialized in joint preserving minimally invasive techniques to repair injuries to the shoulder, hip, and knee to prevent arthritis and prevent the need for joint replacement later in life."
The website also says that the orthopedic surgeon has invented a "revolutionary meniscus repair device" called NovoStitch Pro Meniscal Repair System.
He worked for the San Francisco 49ers during his fellowship at Stanford.
He was previously married to 'The Ugly Truth and 'Grimm' actress Bree Turner.

In a statement given to Page Six, the couple said, "We have made the difficult decision to divorce. As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives."
The 'America's Got Talent' judge celebrated her 51st birthday in Italy. The actress was seen posing with her friends without her wedding ring in the birthday snaps.
