In this procedure, damaged cartilage and bone is removed from the surface of your knee joints at both the femur and tibia bones. New metal surfaces are placed onto the bones and a piece of specialized plastic fits in between, allowing the knee to bend smoothly.

With arthroscopy, a tiny camera is inserted into the knee through a small surgical cut. The camera is connected to a video monitor in the operating room. Your surgeon will use the camera to check the ligaments and other tissues of your knee and make certain repairs.

ACL reconstruction is surgery to reconstruct the ligament in the center of your knee. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) connects your shin bone (tibia) to your thigh bone (femur). Your surgeon will make tunnels in your bone to bring the new tissue through. The new ligament will be attached to the bone with screws or other devices to hold it in place. As it heals, the bone tunnels fill in. This holds the new ligament in place.

In this operation, the upper portion of the femur (thigh bone) is cut so that it is able to accept a metal stem which has an artificial ball on the top. The ball then fits into an artificial socket that is secured to the patient’s pelvic bone.

In shoulder replacement surgery, the damaged parts of the shoulder are removed and replaced with artificial components.  In a partial shoulder replacement, only the replacement of the head of the humerus bone (ball) is replaced.  In some cases, total shoulder replacement may be required to replace both the ball and the socket of the shoulder.

 A rotator cuff repair involves stitching the torn tendon back onto its attachment to the arm bone (Humerus)

Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure on your median nerve resulting in tingling, pain, or numbness in the fingers. There are a wide range of treatments for carpel tunnel syndrome depending on the severity. Treatments may include medication, therapy, wearing a brace, or surgery to take pressure off of the nerve.

Trigger Finger or Trigger Thumb is a painful condition that causes your fingers or thumb to catch or lock when you bend them.  This is the result of tendon inflammation.  While this can usually be resolved with rest and medication, surgery may be recommended in some cases.

Sports medicine focuses on helping people those who want better results from their exercise program, the treatment and prevention of injuries related to sports and exercise, and those with disabilities who are trying to increase mobility and capability.

The goal of treatment is to control the pain, promote healing, prevent complications, and restore normal use of the fractured area. A splint or cast may be used to immobilize the fracture to promote bone alignment and healing.

Pediatric orthopaedic surgeons care for and treat conditions affecting the bones and joints, muscles, cartilage and ligaments in children and young adults. We treat acute conditions such as bone breaks, sprains, and strains to congenital conditions such as scoliosis, club feet, flat feet, and hip dysplasia.
