Arthritis can make even the simplest movements challenging. Our team of doctors, nurses and therapists work together to help you regain mobility and alleviate pain.

Our services include:

• Arthritis education, resources and support
• Medications and pain management therapies

If your condition isn't responding to conservative treatment options, your doctor may recommend orthopedic surgery. We use minimally invasive techniques, whenever possible, to perform the following:

• Ankle surgery

• Hand surgery
• Hip resurfacing
• Reconstructive surgery
• Shoulder surgery
• Total joint replacement of the hip, knee, shoulder and elbow
• Wrist surgery

If you are a professional athlete or a recreational competitor, an injury can prevent you from enjoying your sport and can even make everyday activities challenging.

Our doctors collaborate with physical rehabilitation specialists and athletic trainers to plan the most effective treatment for you. Our goal is to help you work on your mobility, strength and fitness.

If you're experiencing joint pain, you can count on our team to be there for you. Our orthopedic doctors, surgeons, pain management specialists and physical therapists treat chronic joint pain caused by injury, arthritis and other degenerative joint diseases.

You may consider seeking treatment if you're having chronic issues with your knee joint. Our knee health risk assessment can help you determine your next steps.

We know that hip discomfort can impact many areas of your life. Our hip health risk assessment is designed to help you get started on a path to recovery and wellness.

If surgery is part of your treatment plan, we are proud to offer comprehensive joint replacement options, including minimally invasive procedures.

Joint replacement surgeries we offer

The goal of joint replacement surgery is to help relieve pain and restore function and movement to the affected joint. If total or partial joint replacement is recommended, you can be confident that our orthopedic team will provide excellent care.

We offer:

• Elbow replacement — Replaces the elbow with an artificial joint
• Hip resurfacing — Replaces part of the damaged femoral head with a metal covering and the hip bone socket with a metal shell; used as an alternative to hip replacement
• Partial hip replacement — Removes and replaces the ball, or femoral head, of the hip joint without replacing the socket
• Partial knee replacement — Uses robotic surgery techniques to replace only the damaged part of the knee with a prosthesis; used as an alternative to total knee replacement
• Shoulder replacement — Replaces the damaged areas of the shoulder's ball-and-socket joint with metal or plastic prosthetic implants
• Total hip replacement — Removes the damaged bones and cartilage and replaces them with prosthetic implants
• Total knee replacement — Uses robotic surgery techniques to resurface the knee by capping the ends of the bones that form the knee joint and the kneecap

If you undergo joint replacement surgery, physical therapy (PT) and physical rehabilitation play an important role in your recovery. Our PT team will work with you to help you regain mobility and get you back to the activities you love.

Candidates for joint replacement surgery

You may be a candidate for joint replacement surgery if:

• The pain in your joint is present even when resting, or interferes with sleep
• You have moderate to severe arthritis in your joint, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
• You have stiffness or reduced range of motion during normal activities
• You have tried nonsurgical treatments, such as anti-inflammatory drugs, steroid injections or PT, but haven't found relief

If you are undergoing surgery, The Orthopedic Institute provides an upscale environment while also promoting wellness and healing. Our amenities include private rooms with safety-enhanced patient beds and extra seating for family members.

We also have a coffee shop with a waiting area and a digital tracking board to allow your family and loved ones to track your surgery.
