Orthopedics
|
|
|
| |
| Orthopedic care has changed considerably over the years. A painful hip joint or knuckle can be replaced, restoring mobility. A spine can be given more support, relieving pressure and pain through surgery or kyphoplasty/vertebroplasty. Osteoporosis can be reversed to a certain degree with medication and movement.
We are pleased to offer a full range of treatment for people with musculoskeletal disease. |

Bone Fracture |
|
| |
Bone fracture is the most common orthopedic problem. For those bone fractures that cannot be remedied in our Emergency Department (as many can), we have specially trained staff to perform surgery, provide nursing care, get you back on your feet and provide needed therapy. |

Joint Replacement |
| |
|
| |
Almost any joint can be replaced—hips, knees, toes, fingers, elbows, and shoulders. These procedures can make a tremendous difference in a person’s life by reducing or eliminating pain and restoring ease of movement. |
