Orthopedic care

Our team of pediatric orthopedic specialists treat a wide variety of back, bone, muscle and joint conditions experienced by infants and children. We proudly offer advanced surgical options, as well as therapeutic services designed to promote your child's recovery after surgery.

The hand is a complex structure with bones, nerves and muscles working together in a small space. Our hands are vital to performing many activities of our daily lives, so when an injury occurs, it can be frustrating. We offer both surgical and nonsurgical treatments for hand injuries, as well as other extremity problems.

Due to the intricate anatomy of the arms and hands, orthopedic surgery on the upper extremities is performed very delicately, often using microscopic techniques. Once surgery has been completed, the hand surgeons at our hospital partner with certified hand therapists to ensure proper postoperative recovery.

Our doctors also offer individuals who have undergone an amputation specialized, targeted muscle reinnervation. This surgical procedure allows our orthopedic surgeons to reassign the nerves that once controlled your limb to now control your prosthetic device.

Your hips can become damaged or worn down over time, resulting in chronic pain. Our joint specialists understand the important role that your hips play in your daily mobility, and work to assess your condition and determine what treatment options are available. If you have concerns about your long-term hip health, we offer an online assessment to provide you with next steps.

Hip fracture treatment

A fall that leads to a broken hip can occur at any time and have immediately impacts. The hip fracture program at our hospital provides rapid care to individuals coming to the emergency room (ER) with a hip fracture. Here, our goal is to minimize potential complications and help you return to an active lifestyle.

The team in our ER is trained to immediately assess a hip fracture and notify an orthopedic surgeon. Surgery is normally performed within 24 hours to repair the hip quickly and avoid severe pain.

We provide care for all types of both adult and pediatric joint injuries. Our specialists care for individuals with hip fractures, arthritis and other joint problems that may require nonsurgical treatment or replacement surgery.

A joint replacement is a surgical procedure that replaces a damaged joint with a new, synthetic joint, typically made of metal, plastic or ceramic. Our surgeons perform joint replacement surgeries on the knees, hips and shoulders, surgeries which can help eliminate discomfort, restore movement and increase overall quality of life. Many people experience discomfort that is so severe that they have limitations in their abilities to walk, work and perform simple daily activities. Joint replacement offers a solution to get your orthopedic health back on track and restore your movements and range of motion.

We are proud to hold certification from The Joint Commission with their Gold Seal of Approval for hip and knee replacement procedures. Additionally, many of our nurses have supplemental certifications, illustrating their level of education and experience beyond standard nursing care.

Limb lengthening and abnormality correction

Limb length discrepancies and limb abnormalities can cause a number of medical issues and have a significant impact on your quality of life. We are able to use advanced surgical technologies to perform limb lengthening and abnormality correction procedures, setting you up for potential success in postoperative rehabilitation.

Physical therapy and rehabilitation

Physical therapy for joint replacement will begin very soon after surgery and can last multiple weeks, depending on the type of procedure you had. If you have undergone a hip or knee replacement, we will help you work to increase your strength through targeted exercises and the use of a walker. Occupational therapists aim to help you learn how to adeptly perform daily activities, while still in the midst of recovery. These activities may include getting dressed, bathing and simple household tasks.
