Orthopaedic Services

Orthopaedics is a medical specialty concerned with the diagnosis, care and treatment of patients with musculoskeletal disorders ... from shoulder to toe.

Sports Medicine Associates provides a full range of orthopaedic services for patients of all ages including fracture treatment, arthroscopic surgery, reconstructive joint replacement and sports medicine. Our physicians are skilled in the treatment of athletic, recreational, and workplace injuries as well as all other musculoskeletal problems.

We take great pride in the fact all of our physicians are Board Certified in their specialties and have completed a full-year fellowship in Sports Medicine at a fully-accredited Sports Medicine Program. This specialized training allows us to be proficient in treating sports related orthopaedic conditions while enhancing our ability to treat other general orthopaedic concerns as well.

Although our orthopaedists may perform surgery to restore function lost as a result of injury or disease of bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, or skin, they are involved in all aspects of health care pertaining to the musculoskeletal system. They employ medical, physical and rehabilitative methods as well as surgical methods.

Orthopaedics is a specialty of immense breadth and variety. Our orthopaedists treat a wide variety of diseases and conditions, including such common injuries as fractures, torn ligaments, dislocations, sprains, tendon injuries and pulled muscles, osteoporosis and bursitis.

Great advances have occurred in the surgical management of degenerative joint disease with the total replacement of diseased joints by prosthetic devices. Similarly, arthroscopy, the use of visualizing instruments to assist in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of internal joint diseases, has opened new horizons of therapy.
