PATIENT EDUCATION

Informing our patients and their advocates of options and providing a full understanding of the ailment and potential treatments is our goal, first and foremost.  Whether seeking more information about our services, or are researching one or more maladies or procedures, the library of material below can offer tremendous insight into your coming treatments.

Articles/resources are contributed by American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.  As such, their content should be trusted, but also remember that no online reading or research can take the place of an in-depth question and answer session with your doctor. 

Please do not treat this area as a replacement for in-person consultation.
