Orthopedic and Spine

Orthopedic Surgery

Orthopedic surgery is the surgical repair of the muscles, bones and joints. It often follows less intensive treatments, like medicinal therapy and physical therapy. 

Orthopedic surgeons offer a number of procedures, from ligament repair to total joint replacement surgery. 

Why have orthopedic surgery?

Many people choose to have orthopedic surgery after other treatments have failed to deliver lasting relief. Choosing to have surgery is never easy, but effective orthopedic surgical care can restore mobility and improve your quality of life.
