Your body is made up of bones, muscles, blood vessels, tendons, and ligaments
that all work together to help you work, play, and complete daily functions.
When part of this complex system is damaged, you can experience pain,
impaired function, and decreased mobility which can affect all aspects
of your life. At Valley View, our orthopedic team listens to your needs
and treats your condition with the latest methods and technology to get
you back on your feet.
The team at ValleyOrtho believes that the best formula for making medical
decisions is to combine the most current and reliable medical facts with
our patient’s individual goals. Put more simply: Medical Information
+ Patient Information = Better Health Decisions. Patient decisions influence
overall well-being, as well as the quality and cost of the care. By taking
an active role in health care decisions, patients are likely to be happier
with the care received and the results achieved.
SHOULDER
The shoulder joint is susceptible to sports injuries, wear and tear, acute
or sudden injury and degenerative ailments which can create pain and limit
range of motion. The shoulder specialists at ValleyOrtho, alongside our
Valley View physical therapy team can help you address your symptoms and
create a treatment plan that will minimize pain and long term damage to
the joint.
While some minor hand and wrist injuries can heal on their own, others
require treatment, such as splinting or casting, injections, medications,
bracing, physical therapy and, if needed, surgery.
Our hand specialists know how to treat the complex structure of the hand
and our surgeons are specially trained to operate on the intricate bones
and tissues in the hand, wrist and forearm.
Joint pain and impaired joint performance can be a problem for anyone,
at any stage of life. Age, stress, trauma and disease all affect joint
function. ValleyOrtho provides a comprehensive, streamlined approach to
joint pain and function. Treatment includes both non-surgical and surgical
options, including joint replacement of the knee, hip, or shoulder.
You hips have a role in every movement of your body, so hip problems can
drastically affect your quality of life. Hip pain is a common problem
and yet treatment options vary and depend on an accurate diagnosis.
Knee pain and injuries can be debilitating. Whether you have suffered an
injury or developed pain over time, getting a correct diagnosis and treatment
plan can help you get back to walking, running, or playing sports.
Foot and ankle injuries are common among athletes, non-athletes, children
and adults alike. Our team of specialists will carefully evaluate your
symptoms and use state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to treat injuries
and ailments. Our integrated approach will get you back on your feet as
soon as possible.
Valley View’s Orthopedic Center is unique in that we house surgery,
imaging and physical rehabilitation under one roof. This allows our team
to better understand your condition and treatment and create a recovery
plan that gets you back to your old self quickly and safely.
SURGERY
Our sophisticated surgical techniques allow many patients to have their
surgery and return home the same day. If you do stay in the hospital after
surgery, you will enjoy a comfortable, private room with enough space
for a family member to stay with you.
Our team uses a number of biologics to repair and strengthen tissue during
and after surgery. Some of these include platelet-rich plasma, bone grafting
solutions, and cartilage repair products. If your orthopedic surgeon believes
your treatment will be enhanced with biologics, they will discuss these
options with you before your procedure.
REHABILITATION
Our rehabilitation team communicates directly with your surgeon to understand
your injury and create a custom recovery plan.
Rehabilitation techniques include joint mobilization, soft tissue stretching,
ultrasound, cold and heat, and home exercise programs, all which work
together to get you the best results possible.
