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.
Asesoramiento experto, disponible 24 horas al día, 7 días a la semana

Assessing your bone and joint health
When something is wrong with your bones or joints, it can be painful and debilitating. We offer a quick knee health risk assessment and hip health risk assessment to help you get started on a path to recovery and wellness.
Comprehensive care for joint replacement (CJR)
We are proud to participate in Medicare’s CJR program, which promotes high-quality, coordinated care for individuals undergoing hip and knee replacement surgery.
We work closely with CJR doctors and post-acute care providers to improve quality and coordinate care throughout your hospitalization experience and recovery. The CJR program allows facilities like ours to enter into financial gain-sharing relationships with its collaborators to share in the success of the program.
Our hospital's written policy for selecting CJR collaborators is available for download.
Minimally invasive hip replacement surgery
We offer a direct anterior hip replacement, a minimally invasive approach to replacing your hip joint. This advanced technique allows your surgeon to replace the hip joint without detaching any muscles or tendons from the pelvis or femur.
This procedure is made easier by using a special hip and knee arthroplasty table, which allows proper positioning of your hip for surgery. Minimally invasive hip replacement offers several potential benefits compared to traditional hip replacement, such as:
- Faster rehabilitation
- Less postoperative discomfort
- Minimal scarring
- Shorter hospital stay
Spine care
Our spine specialists are skilled in diagnosing and treating acute and chronic back and spine disorders. Our comprehensive spine care program includes nonsurgical treatments, interventional spine procedures and spine surgery.
Our spine surgeons perform procedures, such as laminectomy and spinal fusion, and use minimally invasive techniques when possible.
Preoperative joint camp program
Our preoperative joint camp program is designed to help you prepare for hip or knee replacement surgery. Be sure to ask your doctor about this program prior to your surgery.
Orthopedic physical rehabilitation
After you have been treated for your orthopedic condition, our physical therapy team is here to help you recover and get back to the things you love as quickly and safely as possible. Through physical therapy and rehabilitation techniques, our licensed specialists work with you in a private setting, at your own pace and comfort level.
