Orthopedic Surgery
Orthopedics
Injury, trauma, degenerative disease, or a congenital disorder of the musculoskeletal system can cause discomfort and keep you from living an active lifestyle. If nonsurgical techniques no longer relieve pain, orthopedic surgery may help you regain agility and movement so that you can be active without discomfort. We have experience repairing or reconstructing hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles and feet. Many orthopedic surgeries can be accomplished utilizing minimally invasive and arthroscopic techniques which reduce your time in the hospital and help you recover more quickly. Also see our joint replacement page for more information.
