Orthopedic care

Orthopedists are doctors who take care of the entire musculoskeletal system. They diagnose and treat conditions such as sprains, strains, broken bones, arthritis and osteoporosis. Some of the treatments they offer include recommending lifestyle changes, applying casts and performing surgeries, such as ligament repairs or total joint replacements.

Surgical procedures we perform

The goal of our orthopedic program is to improve your mobility, range of motion and quality of life. Our orthopedic surgeons perform advanced surgical procedures, including:

Robotic joint replacement

Robot-assisted joint replacements are performed by a highly experienced team of surgeons, nurses and technicians who are specially trained to use these systems.

The robot-assisted system gives surgeons a better, more accurate 3D view inside your body. The robotic instruments can bend and rotate far more than the human hand for greater precision and control. Robot-assisted surgery offers many potential benefits compared to traditional surgery, including:

  • Smaller incisions
  • Shorter hospital stays
  • Reduced recovery time
  • Less scarring

Orthopedic rehabilitation

Through our comprehensive physical rehabilitation program, physical therapists and occupational therapists teach you how to exercise, walk and complete daily activities, such as dressing and cooking, while you heal. During the hospital stay, a case manager assesses your progress and goals for discharge. The case manager also helps organize:

  • Additional support available through a home health agency
  • Any equipment that may be needed at home
  • Inpatient rehabilitation, if needed
