Services
Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy uses small incisions and a camera to treat joint injuries, reducing recovery time and scarring compared to traditional open surgery. This technique addresses shoulder, knee, hip, and elbow conditions, including torn cartilage and ligament repairs. Patients benefit from faster rehabilitation and less postoperative discomfort.
Joint Replacement
Joint replacement surgery resurfaces damaged joints with metal and plastic components to alleviate pain and restore function. We specialize in hip, knee, and shoulder replacements using advanced implants and robotic-assisted technology. Long-term success rates exceed 15-20 years, with revision options available for worn-out components.
Sports Medicine
Sports Medicine addresses athletic injuries through surgical and non-surgical methods, focusing on returning patients to active lifestyles. Services include ligament reconstructions, tendon repairs, and concussion management. Dr. Busfield's fellowship training ensures expertise in treating professional and amateur athletes at all levels.
Fracture Care
Fracture care involves diagnosing and treating broken bones with immobilization, casting, or surgical fixation using plates, screws, or nails. We handle simple and complex fractures, including those requiring joint replacement. Prompt treatment restores bone alignment and minimizes long-term complications.
PRP Therapy
PRP therapy uses a patient's blood plasma to accelerate healing for tendon injuries and mild arthritis. Concentrated platelets deliver growth factors to damaged tissues, offering an alternative to surgery. While not covered by insurance, research supports its effectiveness for conditions like tendinitis and early osteoarthritis.
