Orthopedic surgery
Our fellowship-trained, board-certified orthopedic surgeons use state-of-the-art techniques and implants to treat orthopedic conditions that may not otherwise be repairable without surgical care. Some of the orthopedic surgeries we offer include:
Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves a small camera system and instruments to help the surgeon visualize and repair the affected joint. This is a common technique used in the treatment of knee and shoulder conditions. Due to the less invasive nature of arthroscopy, these procedures are usually performed on an outpatient basis.
Joint replacement surgery
Joint replacement surgery is used to treat severe joint conditions and chronic joint pain. During a joint replacement, an orthopedic surgeon replaces parts of a damaged or arthritic joint with a prosthesis (artificial) joint. Total and partial joint replacement procedures performed at our hospital include:
- Ankle replacements
- Elbow replacements
- Knee replacements
- Hip replacements
- Shoulder replacements
- Wrist replacements
We use advanced technology and computer-assisted tools to precisely align hip and knee implants. We also offer revision procedures for patients who have had joint replacement surgery and need some or all of the prosthesis replaced.
Minimally invasive knee replacement surgery
Our orthopedic surgeons use advanced technology to provide patients with minimally invasive and highly effective knee replacement surgery. We offer robotic surgery, including robot-assisted knee replacements, with 2D and 3D preoperative planning. We also use sensor-assisted knee replacement technology to help ensure the knee is correctly balanced.
Joint replacement pre-surgery education
Patients who are scheduled for joint replacement surgery are encouraged to attend our Total Joint Replacement Class. The class provides patients:
