Our goal is to provide innovative and cost effective musculoskeletal care with integrity and honesty to each individual patient while helping patients regain the best possible function, enhancing their quality of life and meeting their personal goals. Orthopedics is the specialty devoted to the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of diseases and injuries associated with the complex musculoskeletal system. We specialize in many areas of orthopedics and musculoskeletal care including arthritis, fractures, sprains, acute trauma, sports injuries, arthroscopic surgery and open surgery. What is Primary Care Sports Medicine (PCSM)? Primary care sports medicine is a specialty field that involves the treatment and prevention of illness and injury in order to maximize function and minimize disability and time away from sport, work or school. While there is some overlap with diagnoses cared for by orthopedic surgeons, primary care sports medicine is a non-surgical specialty with focus not only on the musculoskeletal system but on all systems of the body affecting physical activity and fitness. Common examples of musculoskeletal problems we treat, include: joint injuries, muscle strains, overuse injuries such as tendonitis and stress fractures. We perform in office procedures to include: joint, muscle and tendon injections, dry needling, osteopathic manual therapy and ultrasound guided injections, aspirations, tenotomy and PRP. Additionally, PCSM physicians serve as team physicians, perform pre-participation sport physicals, concussion management, female athlete triad care, mononucleosis in sport and return to play decision making. Coordinating care with other members of the sports medicine team (trainers, physical therapists, coaches, family, and other healthcare providers) and proper patient education is important to our overall goal of teaching wellness and promoting a healthy lifestyle.
