Orthopedic Care, Innovations, & Areas of Expertise

Our orthopedic team is committed to delivering high-quality care close to home, combining advanced innovations, specialized expertise and a dedication to excellence to help patients manage pain, improve mobility and return to the activities they enjoy. We provide comprehensive care for bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves, with treatment options designed around each patient’s needs, goals and recovery.

Latest Innovations

Every patient and surgical plan is unique. An orthopedic surgeon can help determine which approach is appropriate based on diagnosis, health history, goals and recovery needs.

  • MAKO-Assisted Arthroplasty®: Robotic-assisted hip and knee surgery that helps surgeons plan procedures using detailed anatomy data and improved visualization.
  • Anterior Approach Hip Replacement: A minimally invasive hip replacement technique performed from the front of the hip, designed to preserve key muscles and support recovery for appropriate candidates.
  • Minimally Invasive Joint Replacement: Advanced surgical approaches that may support smaller incisions, less muscle disruption, shorter hospital stays and faster rehabilitation for eligible patients.

Custom-Fit Knee Replacement

Custom-fit technology allows the surgeon to plan implant size and placement based on each patient’s anatomy before surgery.

This personalized approach may help preserve healthy bone and ligaments, support efficient surgery and contribute to a more natural-feeling knee for appropriate candidates.
