Orthopedic surgery
Our orthopedists always suggest the least invasive treatment methods possible. However, to relieve pain and increase range of motion for some conditions, surgery can be the best option. One of the most common and effective surgical procedures we offer is joint replacement surgery.
Joint replacement surgery
We offer joint replacement procedures to help individuals with joint injuries and arthritis return to a pain-free life. During joint replacement, an orthopedic surgeon removes parts of a damaged or arthritic joint and replaces those parts with a prosthesis, or artificial joint. We perform total and partial knee and hip replacements at our hospitals.
Minimally invasive hip replacement surgery
Our hospital offers minimally invasive hip replacement surgery using the anterior approach. In this procedure, the surgeon accesses the hip joint through an incision on the front of the hip. This approach does not displace muscle tissue, which may result in smaller scars and shorter recovery times.
Physical therapy and rehabilitation
We offer inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services, including physical and occupational therapy. Physical therapy and rehabilitation services are often combined with pain management techniques to relieve pain and increase mobility without surgery.
Our physical therapists work with your healthcare teams to provide personalized treatments. You and your physical therapist will set goals for range of motion, balance and other signs of progress. Physical therapy and rehabilitation are also used to help you recover from orthopedic surgery.
Sports medicine
Leading an active lifestyle is an important part of staying healthy, being fit and reducing stress. Our staff is highly experienced in sports medicine and researches the latest recovery and rehabilitation methods to get you back on your feet when exercise and sports-related injuries occur.
