Hip & Knee
Hips and knees are essential to support the weight of our body during standing, walking and running activities. Because they bear our full body weight, hips and knees are especially susceptible to injury and arthritis.
Hip and knee problems are the most common reasons patients visit South Florida Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine. Hip function is often compromised by arthritis, fracture, osteoporosis, or deformity. Knees are susceptible to ACL and other ligament tears, fractures, trauma, sprains/strains and arthritis. Whether caused by injury or degeneration, hip and knee pain dramatically affects our ability to live a full and active lifestyle.
Our Board-Certified Orthopedic Surgeons have specialized training in the evaluation, diagnosis and non-surgical as well as surgical treatment for all hip and knee problems. We use state-of-the-art surgical techniques when surgery is appropriate. Our comprehensive spectrum of care helps our patients achieve maximum outcome to return to normal activities as soon as possible.
