Specialties

Orthopedic surgery is corrective surgery designed to reconstruct, repair, or stabilize the physical integrity and/or function of the skeletomuscular system. In other words, an orthopedic surgeon’s job is to fix problems with the bones, joints, and ligaments. Often this will entail reconstructing damaged joints, resetting fractured bones, or reattaching torn ligaments. The range of problems an orthopedic surgeon can encounter is as broad as the list of body areas in which the surgeon can specialize. Some orthopedic surgeons focus on the joints; some specialize in feet and ankles; some are experts in all orthopedics related to sports injury.

Other musculoskeletal systems that orthopedic surgeons may specialize in include:

• Pediatric Orthopedics
• Hands
• Elbows
• Shoulders
• Joint Reconstruction
• Back and neck
• Musculoskeletal Oncology
• And more
