Orthopedic care
Orthopedists are doctors who take care of the entire musculoskeletal system. They diagnose and treat conditions such as 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 offer
After your initial assessment with one of our specialists, we will recommend steps to help relieve your pain and move you closer to your wellness goals.
Orthopedic surgery
Our orthopedic surgeons use the latest surgical techniques to improve your quality of life. We perform the following surgical procedures:
- Arthroscopic surgery of the knee, hip and shoulder
- Fracture surgery
- Joint reconstruction of the knee and shoulder
- Total joint replacement surgery of the knee, hip and shoulder
Total joint replacement surgery
Joints can become damaged or worn with age and overuse, which can be painful. If you experience chronic and severe joint pain, you may want to consider a joint replacement. A joint replacement may be necessary when you experience:
- Pain while resting
- Reduction in mobility
- Severe rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis
After you meet with one of our orthopedic surgeons and choose to move forward with joint replacement, you will be fitted for an orthopedic prosthesis. This will act as the replacement to your knee, hip or shoulder joint and will provide you with more mobility than before.
Post-surgery rehabilitation
After your surgery, we offer physical therapy and rehabilitation to help you heal and recover. Our team will work with you to determine your needs and create a personalized rehabilitation plan.
Joint replacement rehabilitation will begin right after surgery. Rehabilitation from a surgery to correct a bone fracture or other injury will start with immobilization or casting before you start muscle strengthening.
Spine care
In addition to our orthopedic surgery services, we also provide comprehensive spine care solutions. You can count on our spine doctors to provide treatment for your back, neck or spine.
