Because every knee is uniquely shaped, a one-size-fits-all approach to surgery simply isn't enough. The CORI◊ Surgical System allows Dr. Scott Strasburger to create a highly detailed, 3D digital model of your knee during the procedure, without the need for prior CT scans or MRIs. This incredible precision helps ensure the implant is placed for optimal ligament balance, which may help provide a more natural feel as you recover. 🤖
CORI◊ is a Trademark of Smith & Nephew. Individual results may vary.

Spring yard work and weekend hobbies can sometimes put unexpected strain on your elbows. Whether you're dealing with a sudden twinge from gardening or a lingering issue like tennis elbow, these aches can be incredibly frustrating. The Sagewell Orthopaedics team offers comprehensive elbow care, focusing on conservative therapies to help restore your strength and comfort as quickly as possible. 🪴
Preparing for an upcoming knee procedure? Managing post-operative discomfort is a crucial part of a smooth recovery. The iovera° system is a unique cold-therapy treatment that can be utilized before surgery to help block nerve signals.

Movement is everything when it comes to living life to the fullest. 💪
