Knee

The knee is one of the most easily injured joints in the body. Perhaps you’ve had to give up cycling or merely wearing heels because of knee pain. Going out for a nice run may be out of the question. It may become difficult to just get out of bed in the mornings. It may be an ordeal to sit on the floor to play with your children.

Whether you’re suffering from a recent sporting injury or from gradual wear and tear of arthritis, knee pain can make it difficult for you to maintain an active lifestyle. The dedicated physicians at AOSM are experts in caring for people with knee pain. Our sports medicine experts will take the time to get to know you and perform a thorough evaluation of your condition.

We take personal pride in making sure that you have a clear understanding of your situation. In conjunction with your input, the AOSM physician will devise a treatment strategy that is unique to you, based on your particular diagnosis, your life situation, and your goals. We will provide you with the full spectrum of treatment options from medications, physical therapy and other soft tissue techniques to the latest techniques in minimally invasive surgery. Based on your individual goals and needs, our experts will help you make decision that is right for you. We provide cutting-edge surgical care from knee arthroscopy, which may involve cartilage repair or ACL reconstruction, to resurfacing techniques to partial knee replacement to total knee replacement. We work with you every step of the way to provide the treatment that will restore your quality of life.

If you have been told that you ‘need’ surgery, we invite you to chat with our specialists to see if there may be alternatives that are as equally or more effective in relieving your pain.
