Our orthopedic doctors specialize in treating knee pain and injuries. When your knees hurt from running or walking or you feel like your knee is giving out, talk to our orthopedic knee specialists. We provide thorough evaluations to help find the cause of your pain and offer treatment for all types of knee-related disorders. Our doctors and care teams listen to understand you and how your pain affects your daily life. Then, we work with you to create a care plan that’s right for you.
Healthy knees can help prevent falls
Your knee is a hinge joint, meaning your leg should bend one way. When there is damage to the knee joint, the upper and lower part of your leg may be affected too. This can increase pain and make it difficult to move. In older adults, falling is the leading cause of injury. In teens and active adults, sports-related injuries can damage the knee. Our doctors and orthopedic care teams offer surgical and non-surgical treatments for bone-on-bone joint pain, ACL tear, meniscus ligament strain, knee cap dislocation, cartilage damage and bone fracture.
