What is Orthopedics?

Orthopedics (or orthopaedics) is the medical field dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders. This includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles. Whether addressing traumatic injuries, chronic conditions, or severe back pain, the goal of orthopedics is to restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve your quality of life through surgical or non-surgical treatments. Our orthopedic doctors use advanced imaging, minimally invasive techniques, and personalized rehabilitation plans to restore structural integrity and optimal function.

Who is it For?

Orthopedic treatment is beneficial for those who have been in a car accident, because the impacts can cause a variety of musculoskeletal issues like fractures, dislocations, ligament tears, and tendon injuries. Post-surgery recovery can also be helped by orthopedic care, as can those suffering from chronic musculoskeletal conditions like joint pain, stiffness, or instability. If pain, instability, or limited motion is slowing you down after an accident or injury, get in touch with our orthopedic team to help get you on the road to recovery.

Benefits of Orthopedics

Benefits of seeing an orthopedic doctor for pain start with diagnosis — our team of experts can use advanced imaging to identify the exact structure causing the issue, ensuring that every treatment targets the root cause. Doing so, paired with state-of-the-art, minimally invasive techniques speeds up your healing and rehab, reducing scar tissue and facilitating a quicker return to daily life. Beyond actual treatment, our doctors are dedicated to providing comprehensive support and education so you can avoid future injuries and discomfort, maintaining long-term joint and bone health for years to come.

Orthopedics FAQs

What does an orthopedic doctor do?

Orthopedic specialists are trained to evaluate musculoskeletal injuries, perform procedures (like joint stabilization), and administer non-surgical treatments (like corticosteroid injections). Orthopedists also coordinate multidisciplinary rehab plans with physical and occupational therapists.

What’s the difference between an orthopedic and podiatrist?

While both focus on musculoskeletal issues, orthopedic doctors evaluate the entire musculoskeletal system (spine, shoulders, knees, hips, hands, feet), while podiatrists only focus on foot, ankle, and lower-leg conditions.

Can an orthopedic doctor treat sciatica?

Yes, sciatica (pain radiating from the lower back down the leg) is commonly caused or exacerbated by herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis — which can all be worsened by trauma like a fall or car accident. Our orthopedic specialists can help pinpoint the nerve compression location, offer non-surgical relief (like epidural steroid injections or targeted physical therapy), and guide recovery plans to restore core strength and prevent recurrence.

Can orthopedic doctor treat arthritis?

Yes, whether you’re struggling with post-traumatic arthritis after an injury or degenerative osteoarthritis, orthopedic doctors may be able to help. Orthopedic care can alleviate pain via joint-preserving injections and bracing, develop long-term management plans (such as weight-bearing modifications, therapeutic exercises, etc.), and more to keep joint pain at bay.
