Orthopedics is the medical specialty
devoted to the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and
prevention of injuries and diseases of the
musculoskeletal system. This includes bones,
joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves. A
large part of an orthopedic practice is treating victims
of trauma, when people get hurt because of an accident
or fall, or the result of disease process such as joint
deterioration caused by arthritis.
The orthopedic surgeons on staff at
Chenango Memorial practice general orthopedics.
They mostly see patients with ailments which affect
their knees, ankles, shoulders, and hips. One of
the surgeons has specialized training in pediatric
orthopedics and a special interest in joint replacement
of hips and knees, especially for arthritis patients.
The surgeons treat many sports-related injuries,
managing them surgically and non-surgically, depending
on the individual need. They perform arthroscopic
procedures on knees and shoulders, accomplish ACL
reconstruction, and carry out fracture care as well.
