Orthopedic treatment
Our team of physicians, surgeons, orthopedic specialists, nurses and staff treat a range of injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Each care team member is uniquely skilled and will provide you with high-quality, personalized care. We specialize in innovative nonsurgical and surgical procedures for the knee, shoulder, spine and hip, as well as joint replacement and trauma surgery for orthopedic injuries.
Whenever possible, our doctors use conservative treatments that require less recovery time than surgery. However, if nonsurgical treatments have not relieved your symptoms, orthopedic surgery may be the only option to restore function and reduce discomfort.
Our orthopedic surgeons can perform a wide range of procedures, including:
- Arthroscopic knee surgery
- Back surgery
- Carpal tunnel release
- Hand and upper extremity surgery
- Knee replacement using robot-assisted surgery
- Orthopedic surgery after trauma
- Shoulder surgery
- Total hip and knee replacement surgery
Knee and hip replacement

This certification demonstrates our strong commitment to providing safe, high-quality healthcare and to continually working to improve the way we deliver care. Our orthopedic program was the first in the region to earn certification for disease-specific care for total knee and hip replacement surgeries.
