Your hip is the joint where your thigh bone meets your pelvis bone. Hips are called ball-and-socket joints because the ball-like top of your thigh bone moves within a cup-like space in your pelvis. Your hips are very stable. When they are healthy, it takes great force to hurt them. However, playing sports, running, overuse or falling can all sometimes lead to hip injuries.

Some conditions we treat include:

• Hip Arthritis
• Hip Fractures
• Labral Tear
• Femoroacetabular Impingement
• Hip Bursitis
• Hip Flexor

The knee is the largest joint in the body, and one of the most easily injured. It is made up of four main things: bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. The knee is a complex joint with many components, making it vulnerable to a variety of injuries.

Many knee injuries can be treated through conservative methods, but some may require surgery to effectively relieve pain and restore function to the joint. Your doctor will decide which type of treatment is best for you after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

Some conditions we treat include:

• ACL Tear
• MCL Tear
• LCL Tear
• PCL Tear
• Torn Meniscus
• Cartilage Injury
• Knee Arthritis
• Knee Fracture

Most problems in the shoulder involve the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, rather than the bones. Athletes are especially susceptible to shoulder problems. In athletes, shoulder problems can develop slowly through repetitive, intensive training routines.

Some people will have a tendency to ignore the pain and “play through” a shoulder injury, which only aggravates the condition, and may possibly cause more problems. People also may underestimate the extent of their injury because steady pain, weakness in the arm, or limitation of joint motion will become almost second nature to them.

Many shoulder injuries can be treated through conservative methods, but some may require surgery to effectively relieve pain and restore function to the joint. Your doctor will decide which type of treatment is best for you after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

Some conditions we treat include:

• Rotator Cuff Tear
• Shoulder Impingement
• Shoulder Instability
• Shoulder Arthritis
• Loose bodies of the Shoulder
• Labral Tear

The elbow is a complex joint that consists of the upper arm bone (humerus) and one of the lower arm bones (ulna) connected by a hinge, or a joint that only moves in one direction. Although not protected by muscle or fat like most other joints, the elbow is one of the most important joints in the body as it allows the arms to bend and twist.

Some of the most common elbow injuries include:

• Biceps tendonitis
• Dislocation
• Bursitis
• Biceps tendon rupture
• Epicondylitis (“Tennis Elbow or “Golfer’s Elbow”)
• Fractures

The hand and wrist are subject to a variety of problems. Some problems are the result of how you use your hands in everyday activities – for example, sprains and strains, as well as fractures, can occur with lifting and carrying heavy objects, operating machinery, bracing against a fall, or sports-related injuries.

Other problems of the wrist and hand can also be attributed to everyday use but are actually a chronic condition or long-term problem, including carpal tunnel syndrome, that develops over periods of time. Your hands and wrists may also be affected by a systemic disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis, and those that affect primarily the joints, such as osteoarthritis.

Many Hand/Wrist conditions can be treated through conservative methods, but some may require surgery to effectively relieve pain and restore function to the joint. Your doctor will decide which type of treatment is best for you after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

We treat a variety of hand and wrist conditions including the following:

• Carpal Tunnel Release
• Trigger Finger Release
• Fractures
• TFCC Tears
• Colles Fractures
• CMC Arthritis
• Tendonitis
• De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Ganglion Cysts
