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.

Joint replacement surgery
Our skilled orthopedic surgeons offer joint replacement surgery to relieve discomfort and help you get back to an active life. You may experience benefits after joint replacement surgery, such as improved quality of life and restored movement in the joint.
Hip replacement
We perform total hip replacement surgery that involves removing the ball and socket and replacing them with prosthetic implants.
Hip resurfacing
Our surgeons offer hip resurfacing. This partial replacement procedure begins by trimming the damaged cartilage and bone in the ball and socket. Then, the femoral head is capped with a metal covering, and a metal shell is placed in your hip socket.
Knee replacement
We provide total and partial knee replacement to treat damaged or diseased knee joints. During a total knee replacement, the knee joint is replaced with an artificial joint.
Partial knee replacement
A partial knee replacement procedure restores the damaged part of your knee joint by implanting a prosthetic implant. The implant is matched to your anatomy, and the procedure allows a significant amount of the bone to be preserved, as well as the potential for a faster recovery time.
Shoulder replacement
Our shoulder replacement surgery replaces the upper part of your arm bone or the socket in your shoulder joint with metal or plastic components.
