go away within a few days. In the early stages, knee pain can usually
be treated with simple, non-invasive treatments like medication or a new
exercise routine.

Surgical Treatments
If you require surgery to treat a knee problem, our team will walk you
through every step of the process. We’re committed to equipping
patients with the tools they need to make a smooth recovery.
-
Arthroscopy – Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used for
both diagnosis and treatment. It can help us find the cause of your knee
pain and treat some knee conditions using a small incision and a scope.
-
Computer and Robotic Assisted Knee Joint Replacement – These technologies improve precision and positioning during your
procedure. Computer navigation allows us to see a 3D view of your joint
and the surgical tools in real time. Robotic-assisted surgery uses CT
scan imaging to plan your surgery and robotic arms during surgery to increase
precision.
-
Minimally Invasive Joint Replacement – Minimally invasive approaches to knee replacement surgery allow
us to use the same surgical techniques and implants as traditional surgery
but with smaller incisions and fewer effects on the surrounding tissues.
-
Osteotomy – During knee osteotomy, a wedge of your bone near your joint is
removed, and the joint is realigned. This can help reduce pain and improve
your joint function. The most common condition treated with knee osteotomy
is arthritis that’s located in only a portion of the knee.
-
Partial Knee Replacement (Unicompartmental Knee Replacement) – With a partial knee replacement, your surgeon will only replace
the part of your knee that is damaged. It is often a good option for those
with arthritis that affects only a portion of the knee and requires a
smaller incision than total knee replacement.
-
Revision Knee Replacement – The quality of knee replacements may be reduced due to wear and
tear over time. In some cases, your doctor may consider revision knee
replacement, which means all or part of the old implant is replaced.
-
Same-Day Knee Replacement – In some cases, we offer same–day knee replacement surgery
options, where patients go home on the same day as their procedure and
recover from the comfort of home. These surgeries optimize recovery through
minimally invasive techniques, anesthesia and pain control protocols,
and immediate movement after surgery.
-
Total Knee Replacement – Total knee replacement may be recommended if you’re unable
to control your knee pain through other treatments. It can be a very effective
long-term solution. Overall, 90 - 95% of knee replacements last at least 15 years.
-
Tricompartmental Knee Replacement – Also known as total knee arthroplasty, tricompartmental knee replacement
replaces worn out pieces of the knee joint with artificial pieces. The
most common condition treated with tricompartmental knee replacement is
arthritis.
