Orthopedic care

Orthopedists are doctors who take care of the entire musculoskeletal system. They diagnose and treat conditions such sprains, strains, broken bones, arthritis and osteoporosis. Some of the treatments they offer include recommending lifestyle changes, applying casts and performing surgeries, such as ligament repairs or total joint replacements.

Orthopedic services

We pride ourselves on using leading-edge technology and innovative techniques to provide you with unmatched orthopedic care. Some of the most common services we offer include:


Orthopedic surgery

Our medical team prefers to treat conditions and injuries without surgery, focusing on physical therapy to ease symptoms. However, this isn't always the best treatment option.

When surgery is necessary, our orthopedic surgeons opt to use minimally invasive procedures when possible. During the procedure, we use small viewing scopes and surgical instruments. The incisions are much smaller compared to traditional surgeries, which typically results in minimal scarring and a faster recovery time.

Joint replacement services

As you age, the cartilage in your joints breaks down, causing bone to rub against bone. Not only can this become uncomfortable or even painful, but this can also limit your mobility. However, this can be fixed through a joint replacement surgery.

Our doctors offer a variety of joint replacement surgeries, including:

  • Knee replacements
  • Partial (hemi) shoulder replacements
  • Total hip replacements
  • Total shoulder replacements

Prior to your replacement surgery, we will discuss your care plan with you, your physicians and other care providers. We even offer free joint education classes, where we discuss the benefits and risks associated with a joint replacement procedure. All of this will help you prepare for the surgery and ensure that you'll have access to the care and support you'll need to fully recover.


Physical rehabilitation services

We offer personalized physical rehabilitation to help you get back to your daily routine as quickly as possible. If you are in need of more intensive care after your orthopedic procedure, inpatient physical therapy is available. We also offer outpatient physical rehabilitation and occupational therapy. If you're unsure which therapy type would work best for you, your doctor can help you decide.
