Your care team works together to deliver specialized care—from diagnosis through recovery. As part of a network, our doctors and care teams share best practices, knowledge, and research, bringing all the care you need close to home.

If surgery is needed, you’re at the right place with experienced specialists in orthopedic surgery, sports medicine and rehabilitation. And your care team connects the dots for you, including any additional or follow-up care, so you can focus on getting back to the things you love.

Your orthopedic doctor listens to understand you and your health concerns. Our goal is to diagnose the cause of your pain.

Specializing in minimally invasive procedures and surgery

If surgery is needed, you’re at the right place with specialists in orthopedic surgery, including minimally invasive procedures. Minimally invasive surgery uses small incisions and may lead to less pain and a shorter recovery. Orthopedic surgeons at Beacon Health specialize in:

• Minimally invasive endoscopic carpal tunnel release surgery
• Occupational and physical therapy
• Pain management and joint injections
• Reconstructive hand surgery
• Tendon and nerve repair
• Trigger finger surgery

Specialty care for overuse injuries

Overuse injuries that cause elbow pain, stiffness and movement limitations are often from repetitive movements. Our sports medicine doctors and orthopedic surgeons treat overuse injuries such as tendonitis or tennis elbow. Sports like tennis, golf and baseball involve arm movements that can wear on the tendons in your elbow. The same can happen at work. Jobs such as plumbing, painting, carpentry, and mechanics often involve repetitive movements. Orthopedic care teams also provide care for many other conditions, including osteoarthritis, bone fractures and arm weakness.

When you have an overuse injury, talk with an orthopedic specialist. We can discuss therapeutic and surgical treatment options, including:

• Arthroscopic surgery and joint repair
• Medication therapy
• Non-surgical injections
• Orthopedic surgery to repair bone fractures in the arm
• Physical therapy for orthopedic rehabilitation and recovery care

Hip Care

Hip pain from a fracture, snapping hip or arthritis can impact your life. Talk to our specialists for a complete review of your hip pain and if hip surgery is needed, the best approach for you: anterior (front), lateral (side) or posterior (back) of hip.

Knee Care

If your daughter took a hard fall during a game or you need physical therapy to get moving better, we are here to help you get back to healthier knees. Whether that is some physical therapy or a knee replacement, our knee surgeons will help you make a plan for recovery.

Shoulder
