- ArthritisThe hip is a ball and socket joint, formed where the rounded head of the femur (thighbone) connects with the pelvis. Articular Cartilage, which is a layer of soft, smooth tissue covers the surfaces of the head of the femur and the socket area of the pelvis, allowing the joint to glide easily. The synovial membrane which is a thin connective tissue surrounds the hip joint and produces synovial fluid to lubricate and help eliminate friction in the joint during movement. Common hip conditions include dislocation, fracture, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, bursitis, labral tear, snapping hip, slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) and irritable hip syndrome.

- Carpal Tunnel SyndromeThe hand and wrist are made up of multiple small joints that work together with surrounding muscles and tendons to produce motion – including fine/delicate motion and gripping. There are 27 bones, 29 joints and at least 123 named ligaments in the human hand. The Carpals (wrist), Metacarpals (hand) and Phalanges (fingers) make up the bones of the hand and wrist. Ligaments connect the bones and help stabilize the joints. Muscles tighten and relax to provide movement; tendons connect muscles to bones; tendon sheaths surround and protect the tendons. Our hands require both sensation and movement of joints, tendons and muscles to function. Due to the complexity of the hand and wrist there are many hand and wrist issues. They include fractures, ligament tear/strain, De Quervain’s Tendinosis, Dupuytren’s Disease, TFCC Tear, carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), trigger finger, intersection syndrome, basal joint arthritis, flexor and extensor tendon injuries, ganglion or mucous cysts.

- ArthroscopyThe knee is the joint made up of the lower end of the femur (thighbone), the upper end of the tibia (shinbone) and the patella (kneecap). Articular cartilage which is a layer of soft, smooth tissue covers the end of the femur and tibia, and lines the underside of the patella, allowing the joint to slide easily. Meniscus, a wedge-shaped piece of cartilage, provides a cushion to absorb stress on the joint. Ligaments connect the bones of the knee together. There are two collateral ligaments on either side of your knee and two cruciate ligaments which cross each other inside your knee joint – the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in front and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in the back. The knee is one of the largest and most complex joints in the body. Common complaints and procedures include Total Knee Replacement (Arthroplasty), arthroscopy, injections, fracture repair, dislocation, osteoarthritis, ACL reconstruction, patellofemoral instability, chondromalacia patellae (CMP), muscle/tendon/ligament injuries, meniscus tear/repair, patellar tendinitis and other sprains/tears of soft tissues.

- Frozen ShoulderThe shoulder is made up of two main bones. The scapula, commonly known as the shoulder blade, and the humerus, the upper arm bone, combine together to form the shoulder. The shoulder joint is a ball-and-socket joint. Common ailments of the shoulder include Rotator Cuff Tear or Tendinitis, Shoulder Impingement Syndrome, Bursitis, Bone Spurs, Damage to the Labrum (cartilage), Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis), Shoulder Joint Tear (Glenoid Labrum Tear), Instability, Inflamed Tissue or Loose Bodies, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

- Bunions ProblemsThe foot and ankle is made up of 26 bones and 33 joints and is divided into three sections. The forefoot includes the five toes and five longer bones known as the phalanges and metatarsals. The midfoot includes the bones that form the arches of the feet. The hindfoot is made up of the heel and ankle joint where the talus bone meets the tibia and fibula bones. The structure of the foot does vary from person to person, with various heights of arches and differing shapes of toes. Muscles, tendons and ligaments run along the foot, providing for movement and balance and the largest tendon in the body, the Achilles tendon, connects the heel to the calf muscle. Common conditions and procedures for the foot and ankle include fracture, sprain, Achilles tendinitis or tendinosis, bunions, hammertoe, flat feet or high arches, stress fractures, heel pain, plantar fasciitis, diabetic foot conditions and total ankle arthroplasty.
