Orthopedic Services for adults and children

Sometimes it isn’t the bone that is broken, or the joint that gets injured, that causes the most pain.

It’s the anxiety and fear too. “Can I still be in the school play?” “Will I be able to run in the 10K race I signed up for?” “How will I manage the stairs in my house?” Your teenage daughter wants to make sure she can play in the soccer tournament. Your mother is afraid she’ll lose her independence. You just want to be able to bend your wrist without your arthritis causing pain.

You have questions and fears. We have answers – many and diverse. At the Medical & Surgical Specialty Group, we treat you as a whole person – not just an aching shoulder or swollen knee. So the solutions we provide are as varied as you are. Our traditional medical background allows us to evaluate both surgical and non-surgical alternatives for each unique situation.

When we examine your injury or chronic condition, we also want to know more about the person “attached”. How likely is it that you will re-injure yourself while that broken bone is healing? How often does your hip act up? Are you a casual runner or an every-year marathoner? We want your input to help find the right solution, or set of solutions, for your diagnosis and treatment.

Maybe you just need a removable brace. Maybe you should have that arthroscopic surgery you’ve been putting off, or it’s finally time for that gender-specific implant. Perhaps we should put a cast on your child’s elbow so he can run around without worrying about re-breaking it, even though it’s the type of break that would only require a sling in an adult. Because your injury is unique, we don’t look for answers in one place only—and we’ll make finding those solutions easy on you.
