Orthopedic care

From arthritis to fractures, there are many conditions that may cause joint pain, but we can help. Our orthopedic specialists, nurses and physical therapists are dedicated to improving the joint health of our patients.

Joint pain can arise in numerous ways, including through arthritis and acute fractures, but we're here to help. Our orthopedic specialists, nurses and physical therapists are dedicated to improving your joint health through a combination of nonsurgical care, rehabilitation, lifestyle education and, when necessary, surgery.

Your recovery and overall wellness is our top priority, and our facilities offer dedicated joint replacement patient care teams, preoperative education classes and occupational and physical therapy programs for your convenience, following surgery.

If surgery does become necessary, we prioritize minimally invasive and robot-assisted surgical procedures whenever possible. These types of procedures afford you less pain, minimal scarring, faster recoveries and shorter hospital stays, allowing you to return to daily life sooner than with traditional, open surgery. Talk to your doctor to find out whether minimally invasive and robot-assisted options might be right you.

Some of the joint replacement surgical options we offer include:

• Ankle
• Elbow
• Hip
• Knee
• Shoulder
• Wrist

Foot and ankle pain or injury can significantly impact your mobility and quality of life. Our foot and ankle specialists use the latest technology and techniques to provide comprehensive foot and ankle care that maximizes mobility and functionality.

Our hand and shoulder specialists offer expert care for diseases and injuries affecting the hands and upper extremities, including pain, fractures, arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome. Physicians in our facilities have honed their skills through years of treating orthopedic conditions in the hands, elbows, arms and shoulders, and we work to ensure that your body works for you the way that you want.

Our range of available orthopedic care extends to a pediatric orthopedic program, which focuses on returning kids to their regular, active lives.

Our board-certified pediatric orthopedic doctors treat broken bones, congenital abnormalities, growth plate disorders, movement disorders and other orthopedic conditions in children. Our team is known for expert medical care, as well as their sensitivity to children's needs and feelings.

We are dedicated to providing high-quality spine care that promotes long-term healing and improvement. The spine is one of the most complex structures in the human body, so our spine specialists make sure to provide complete spine, including neurological care that supports overall spinal function.

Our specialists work together to provide customized, comprehensive care for conditions affecting the spine, including injury or trauma, back pain, herniated discs, nerve pain, spinal stenosis and scoliosis.

We offer adult and pediatric sports medicine services, in an effort to help athletes recover from exercise-related injuries and conditions. Not only do our sports medicine specialists provide expert treatments for conditions, such as broken bones, sprains and ligament and repetitive motion injuries, but they also take time to educate you on the safest ways to get back to your sport of choice.

We prioritize nonsurgical treatments whenever possible, pairing physical therapy and rehabilitation services with pain management treatments, such as oral medicine and injection therapy. Combined, these noninvasive methods relieve pain and increase mobility when you have been experiencing mild orthopedic issues and injuries.
