We help athletes of all levels recover from ligament tears, cartilage damage, and overuse conditions through personalized recovery protocols. Our focus extends beyond professional athletes to active individuals seeking full mobility restoration.

Comprehensive solutions for foot and ankle conditions range from bunions and fractures to arthritis and tendon repairs. We employ both conservative treatments and surgical interventions like total ankle replacement. Our approach emphasizes pain reduction and improved mobility through biomechanical assessment and targeted procedures.

Questions
When should I consider orthopedic surgery?
Surgery becomes appropriate when conservative treatments fail to relieve pain or restore function. Your surgeon will evaluate your condition's progression, impact on daily life, and response to non-surgical options.
What immediate steps should I take after a sports injury?
Follow the RICE protocol: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Seek professional evaluation if pain persists beyond 48 hours or if you experience significant swelling, instability, or inability to bear weight.
How long does joint replacement recovery take?
Most patients achieve basic mobility within 6 weeks, with full recovery taking 3-6 months. Robotic-assisted procedures often allow faster rehabilitation through smaller incisions and precise implant placement.
Do you treat non-athletes with sports medicine injuries?
Yes, we treat all musculoskeletal injuries regardless of cause. Common conditions include workplace injuries, accidental trauma, and degenerative conditions affecting active individuals of all lifestyles.
What are signs of surgical infection to watch for?
Monitor for increasing redness, warmth, or swelling at the incision site. Drainage changing to yellow/green color, fever above 101°F, or worsening pain after initial improvement require immediate medical attention.
How are ankle fractures different from sprains?
Fractures typically cause severe swelling, bruising, and inability to bear weight. X-rays confirm bone integrity. Sprains involve ligament damage with varying degrees of instability but maintain bone structure.
