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.

Compared to traditional surgery, this minimally invasive procedure may offer benefits such as:
- Faster recovery and rehabilitation
- Less risk of dislocation
- Shorter hospital stay
- Smaller incision
Preoperative joint replacement surgery class
If you are undergoing joint replacement surgery, we offer a weekly preoperative class, so you can learn more about your upcoming hip or knee replacement procedure. It will also give you the opportunity to discuss any concerns or questions you may have about your surgery with our licensed clinicians.
