It's not just you: Colder weather can make your joints feel stiff.

Lower temperatures can reduce circulation and affect joint fluid. Staying active, warming up before movement, and dressing in layers can help.

Behind every successful procedure is a perioperative team ensuring safety, precision, and calm in high-stakes environments.

This Perioperative Week, we recognize the highly skilled professionals who support our patients before, during, and after the procedure.

At Slocum, our perioperative teams work seamlessly to prepare patients, maintain sterile environments, support our surgeons, and prioritize recovery. Their commitment makes exceptional outcomes possible.

Thank you to every team member who plays a role in perioperative care.

From Pain to Possibility: Bill’s Story

At 72, Bill wasn’t ready to give up rowing his drift boat or filleting salmon on the Oregon coast. Arthritis in both wrists made even the simplest tasks painful, until he found care that matched his lifestyle.

With help from Dr. Jason Tavakolian and a thoughtful surgical plan at Slocum Orthopedics, Bill is back to guiding fishing trips, swinging a hammer, and doing what he loves.

Read how Bill got the relief he needed without slowing him down over on our blog.
