Our orthopedic doctors utilize the most advanced minimally-invasive and arthroscopic techniques to repair shoulders, knees, hips or joints that cause our patients pain.
Patients can experience pain as the result of a sudden trauma or injury, or as the result of a degenerative condition or a disease such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Treating any type of joint pain — shoulder, hip, knee, wrist or ankle — starts with a professional examination by an orthopedic doctor. Based on the diagnosis, the proper form of treatment will be recommended. The aim is to return patients to a pain-free and normal lifestyle through non-invasive or minimally-invasive medical treatments whenever possible.
Our orthopedic surgeons have performed hundreds of procedures, including partial and total knee replacement surgery, carpal tunnel syndrome surgery, hip and shoulder arthroscopy, and partial and total hip replacement surgery. But they can also return many patients to pain-free living without the need for invasive surgery.
Should orthopedic surgery be necessary, the on-site physical rehabilitation services at Argires, Becker and Westphal will return patients to their normal way of life as quickly as possible.
