Atención ortopédica
Los médicos ortopédicos, llamados ortopedistas, brindan atención para los huesos y las articulaciones. Esto incluye dolor de rodilla, reemplazo total de la articulación, problemas que afectan la columna vertebral, entre otros. Es posible que deba visitar a un ortopedista si tiene artritis u osteoporosis, o si recientemente ha sufrido un esguince, una torcedura o una fractura de hueso.

Spine care
The spine is one of the most complex structures in the human body. Our neurologists and orthopedic surgeons work together to provide orthopedic and neurological care for a variety of spine conditions, including herniated discs, nerve pain, spinal stenosis and scoliosis.
Our specialists offer a range of surgical treatments to treat chronic neck and back pain. Many of our spine surgeries can be performed with minimally invasive techniques, which may result in a shorter recovery time.
Orthopedic rehabilitation
Physical therapy and rehabilitation are a vital part of comprehensive orthopedic care. Sometimes, physical therapy is used as a primary method of treatment to stretch and work injured ligaments, tendons and joints. Other times, rehabilitation is key to restoring movement following orthopedic surgery, such as a joint replacement.
We offer physical therapy and rehabilitation services at our outpatient therapy center. Here, our physical therapists and rehabilitation team are highly trained to treat musculoskeletal problems and orthopedic injuries.
