Physicians Team
We have fellowship-trained surgeons in hand, spine, joint replacement, knee, shoulder, and sports medicine. We also have two physiatrists, two rheumatologists and a primary care sports medicine physician.
Physiatrists are nerve, muscle, and bone experts who treat injuries or illnesses that affect how you move. Rheumatologists are internists who are qualified by additional training and experience in the diagnosis and treatment of arthritis and other diseases of the joints, muscles and bones.
Board-Certified physicians have successfully completed an educational program and evaluation process approved by the American Board of Medical Specialties, including an examination designed to assess the knowledge, skills, and experience required to provide quality patient care in a specific specialty.
Fellowship-trained physicians have completed medical school, an internship and a residency, and has chosen to receive very specialized training (a fellowship) in one particular treatment or research area.
