Orthopedic Surgery
Procedures Offered
Hip Arthroplasty
If the pain in your hip affects your daily activities and nonsurgical treatments are of no help, this surgery is your best option.
With hip replacement, the surgeon removes the damaged sections of your hip joint and replaces them with parts usually made of metal, ceramic and very hard plastic. This prosthesis will help reduce your pain and improve your movement.
Knee Arthroplasty
Knee replacement surgery replaces parts of injured or worn-out knee joints. The surgery can help ease pain and make the knee work better. During the surgery, damaged bone and cartilage are replaced with parts made of metal and plastic.
To decide whether a knee replacement is right for you, a surgeon checks your knee's range of motion, stability, and strength. X-rays help show the extent of damage.
Rotator Cuff Repair
Rotator cuff repair is a surgical procedure used to treat a torn tendon in the shoulder. The surgery can be performed using either an open incision or smaller incisions through shoulder arthroscopy. The rotator cuff is a collection of muscles and tendons that cover and stabilize the shoulder joint.
