Knee Care
Enhancing Your Stability—for Life!
The knee connects the two longest mechanical levers in the human body: the thigh and lower leg. It is often responsible for carrying up to five times our body weight when we are running, walking/hiking downhill, or descending stairs. Given those stresses, it is little wonder that knee pain and injury is one of the most common presenting problems in orthopedic offices around the world.
SRO Knee Care Team
When your knee suffers injury, disease or other problems, it can affect your stability and mobility, which can then lead to other injuries in your musculo-skeletal system. At Santa Rosa Orthopaedics, our board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons offer the latest advancements in knee care. If your condition requires surgery, today’s minimally invasive techniques reduce both surgical pain and recovery time, and can be done either as a total or partial knee replacement.
Our knee care orthopedic physicians iare assisted by an experienced support team of physician and medical assistants, physical and occupational therapists, an on-site diagnostic imaging staff, and splinting and casting professionals. Team members consult with each other and their patients through every step of the process.
