Our nationally recognized orthopedic experts are here to get you back to feeling like yourself again. As one of the most advanced orthopedic programs in our region, we offer leading-edge techniques and procedures to treat injury and disease of the bones and joints, from simple fractures and sports injuries to more advanced cases like spine procedures.

Services We Offer
Our experienced orthopedic team offers the latest in treatment options for injury or illness affecting your joints, ligaments, tendons, and other connective tissue.
ACL reconstruction
During this treatment for ACL injury, your orthopedic surgeon removes the damaged ligament and replaces it with a band of tendon from either another part of your knee or from a deceased donor.
Arthroscopic surgery
During this minimally-invasive procedure, your orthopedic surgeon inserts a long, thin tube (arthroscope) and thin surgical tools through a small incision (cut). With a minimally-invasive approach, many people experience less downtime, quicker healing, and less risk of post-surgical infection.
Carpal tunnel surgery
During a surgery known as a carpal tunnel release, your orthopedic surgeon makes an incision in the palm of your hand and across your carpal tunnel ligament. Doing so reduces pressure on your nerve and relieves pain.
Cartilage restoration
The goal of cartilage restoration is to stimulate the growth of new cartilage in your body. Depending on your exact condition and goals, your orthopedist may recommend different cartilage restoration techniques.
Hip and knee revision surgery
If you have previously undergone a hip replacement or knee replacement and are continuing to experience issues, your doctor may suggest you undergo hip revision surgery or knee revision surgery.
Partial and total joint replacement surgery
Our team performs partial and total joint replacement procedures, including:
- Hip and knee replacement and partial knee replacement surgery
- Outpatient total joint replacement surgery
- Shoulder replacement surgery
Rotator cuff repair
If you have a torn rotator cuff (located in the shoulder), you will likely need to undergo repair surgery. Depending on your exact situation and the extent of your injury, your surgeon may use either a traditional, open approach or a minimally-invasive procedure.
