Orthopedic Services
We care for the parts that keep you moving. When a bone, tendon or joint doesn’t work like it’s supposed to and when pain is keeping you from the things you love, we offer an orthopedic approach—from injury prevention and recovery to total joint replacement and rehabilitation—to help get you back to the activities you enjoy.
We provide surgical procedures including:
- Minimally invasive muscle-sparing replacements of the hip, knee and shoulder
- Complex knee injuries including meniscal repair and ACL reconstruction
- Minimally invasive arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs
- Joint dislocation repairs and treatment of instability injuries
- Carpal tunnel release
- Treatment of elbow, wrist and hand injuries
- Treatment of sports medicine injuries
Plateau Medical Center features a specialized joint replacement unit for patients with hip and knee replacements. Our program brings together a staff that provides care throughout your hospital stay. Our goal is to get you back to your favorite activities as soon as possible.
Our dedicated unit was designed with input from the orthopedic surgeon and staff members and is tailored toward personal care, patient comfort and privacy. The rooms are designed to allow active participation of patients in their plan of care and allow for support and involvement of family. Our orthopedic program provides:
- Well trained staff
- Low patient-to-nurse ratio
- Large private rooms
- Sleeping accommodations in patient rooms for your support person
- Surgeries scheduled so that patients do not have to stay in the hospital over the weekend
