The nursing staff, physical and occupational therapists, technicians, and other specialists understand the needs of orthopedic patients and are committed to providing patients with support, education and comfortable, quality care. Patient rooms feature comfortable window sofas where a family member may relax or sleep.

To ensure continuity of care, a rehabilitation facility is located right on the unit.

Outpatient Surgery

Thanks to advances in minimally invasive surgery and technology, our surgeons perform a wide range of orthopedic procedures on an outpatient basis, including arthroscopic knee repair, endoscopic carpal tunnel release, and arthroscopy of the shoulder and rotator cuff. This means that you can recover comfortably at home.

Joint Replacement Surgery

Our specialists match the hip, knee or shoulder replacement to suit each patient’s needs. Age, activity level, and other factors are considered for a customized fit. Learn more about joint replacement.
