This medical specialty includes the branch of surgery which is especially concerned with the preservation and restoration of the skeletal system. This includes the care of the bones, joints and related ligaments, tendons and muscles. We treat fractures and sprains. We perform reconstructive surgery including total knees, hips and shoulders. We do not treat head, neck or facial fractures and we do not provide primary care such as sore throats, stomach problems, etc.
