More about our services
Orthopedic surgery can be a good option when there is significant damage to bones, joints or ligaments. Minimally-invasive surgical techniques can help reduce recovery time. Our services include:
- Arthroscopy: a procedure using special cameras and equipment to visualize, diagnose, and treat problems inside a joint
- Fusion: a process by which bones are fused together with bone grafts and internal devices (such as metal rods) to heal into a single solid bone
- Internal Fixation: a method to hold the broken pieces of bone in proper position with metal plates, pins, or screws while the bone is healing
- Joint Replacement (partial, total and revision): when an arthritic or damaged joint is removed and replaced with an artificial joint called a prosthesis
- Osteotomy: the correction of bone deformity by cutting and repositioning the bone
- Soft tissue repair: the mending of soft tissue, such as torn tendons or ligaments
