General Orthopaedics

General Orthopaedics encompasses injuries and diseases of the body’s musculoskeletal system. This complex system consists of your bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves, all of which allow our bodies to move, bend, flex and maintain activity.

Our physicians are trained to diagnose and treat the spectrum of conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system. Treatment involves both surgical and non-surgical options. Common non-surgical options include medication, exercise and other rehabilitative or alternative therapies. Surgical options include arthroscopy, fusion, internal fixation, joint replacement and soft tissue repair. More than one form of treatment may be necessary.

Rothman Orthopaedic physicians practice evidence-based medicine, meaning the treatments that we perform are based off of evidence found through research and scientific literature so that the best practice is applied.
