ATHROSCOPIC ROTATOR CUFF REPAIR

The rotator cuff is the thick band of muscles and associated tendons that cover the top of the upper arm and hold in it place, providing support and stability to the shoulder joint. The rotator cuff also allows for a full range of motion while keeping the ball of the arm bone in the shoulder socket. These tendons can become partially or completely torn as a result of a rotator cuff tear or injury. A rotator cuff tear often occurs as a result of injury or overuse of the muscles over a long period of time.

HIP ARTHROSCOPY

Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the hip joint. This procedure can be used to confirm the diagnosis of various imaging procedures, such as X-rays and MRIs, as it provides a three-dimensional, real-time image of the affected area. If damage or abnormalities are detected during the arthroscopy, repairs can often be made during the same procedure.

TOTAL JOINT REPLACEMENT

Because joints are in constant use, they often wear out over time due to overuse or aging. Joint reconstruction or replacement may be required to relieve the resulting pain and restore function. Most joints in the body, including the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles and feet, are synovial, permitting movement and articulation. When these joints suffer traumatic injury, or when the cartilage that normally protects them wears away, surgical repair or replacement may be necessary.

SHOULDER & ELBOW SURGERY

Orthopedic surgeons may perform a shoulder arthroscopy to diagnose and treat several different conditions of the shoulder. With this type of procedure, patients benefit from less tissue damage, shorter recovery times, less scarring and less post-operative pain than traditional open procedures.

Elbow arthroscopy is generally used for simple manipulations of the joint, such as fracture care, debridement and removal of bone fragments. It is also commonly used to confirm and examine abnormalities of the joint to provide a proper diagnosis of any elbow conditions.

SPINE SURGERY

Back pain can be debilitating for many people. Often, it can go hand-in-hand with pain from other places, such as the shoulders or hips.

Our Patient Reviews

"Dr. Abeyta and his staff are the best! Office visits are on time. Staff are friendly and efficient. He performed a complete knee replacement on my right leg a few years ago. He’s currently helping me resolve some issues with my left knee. I always feel encouraged when I leave his office. He’s very good at explaining things and takes the time to answer all my questions."

Our Patient Reviews

"I recently revisited the orthopedic surgeon who originally operated on my knee, but unfortunately, he seemed rushed and didn’t thoroughly evaluate me. In contrast, Dr. Detch and his team were exceptional—professional, detailed, and caring. He clearly explained everything, administered a pain-relieving injection, and made me feel fully supported. I highly recommend him! My best friend’s daughter also had a successful leg surgery with him after a ski accident. He’s truly a pro!"

"My 90 year old mother is being treated by Dr. Coughlan after breaking both bones in her dominant hand wrist. Dr. Coughlan and her entire office staff have been fantastic. Knowledgeable, professional, and kind, they patiently discussed treatment options with us, helped us identify the best option given my Mother's unique circumstances, and have been managing her healing based on that plan."

"I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Detch for knee replacement. I'm so happy
with my new knee and wish I had done it years ago. I have my quality of life back. When I need my other knee in the future I am only letting him do my other knee. He listened to my needs and made me feel he would do his best for me and fixed me. I'm smiling again no more cane or pain."

"Dr. Detch is a excellent surgeon and had my hip replaced by him and in the process of having my knee replaced by him. All the staff and nurses also speak highly of him and that is very comforting because they work with him daily and knows his work. I referred many of my friends and clients to him and all are satisfied with the results. Cannot recommend him highly enough!"

“Dr. Kim has been a literal life changer. I was suffering from increasingly painful shoulder arthritis for 5 years. His surgery for a full replenishment went without a hitch; and as an active guy I have also been able to return to most all sports and exercises. He is the diamond standard and his staff are great.”

Conditions
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The carpal tunnel is a narrow, fibrous passage in the wrist that protects the median nerve, which runs down the length of arm and through the wrist into the hand. It controls some hand movement, and sensation in the thumb, index and middle fingers, and half of the ring finger. Irritation or compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel can cause tingling and numbness in the fingers, a condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Conditions
Wrist Sprain
A sprain is a common type of injury that involves a stretching or tearing of ligaments, the strong bands of tissue that connect bones to one another. A wrist sprain is often caused by falling onto an outstretched hand or by bending the wrist backward. Although anyone can sprain a wrist, athletes, including gymnasts, baseball and basketball players, skiers, skaters and skateboarders, are particularly susceptible. Protective splints or braces can offer some protection from injury for those at greatest risk.

Conditions
Anchilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis (also tendinitis) is an inflammation of the Achilles tendon, the strong band of tissue that connects the calf muscle to the heel. This condition occurs when excessive stress is put on the tendon. Achilles tendonitis is usually a painful but short-lived condition. If not treated, however, Achilles tendonitis can increase the risk of Achilles tendon rupture, a serious injury requiring immediate medical attention. Most cases of Achilles tendonitis can be prevented by beginning an exercise regimen slowly, with preparation, and by increasing an exercise program gradually and with care.

Conditions
Arthritis
Arthritis is a condition that causes pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints. Osteoarthritis is a common form of arthritis caused by the wearing down of the cartilage that protects the bones of a joint. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune condition caused by an inflammation in the lining of the joints. Both forms of arthritis cause pain, tenderness, and swelling, and may result in loss of movement in the affected joints. Over time, joints affected by arthritis may become severely damaged. Arthritis occurs more frequently in older individuals, however it sometimes develops in athletes from overuse of a joint or after an injury. It can however, affect people of any age, including children.

Conditions
Foot Sprains and Strain
Both foot sprains and foot strains are very common injuries, occurring as a result of sports accidents, falls, or other traumas. The difference between the two types of injuries is that sprains affect the ligaments, the thick strands of cartilage attaching one bone to another, and strains affect the muscles or the tendons, thick bands attaching muscle to bone. In both cases, the patient with the injury usually experiences pain (particularly upon movement), swelling, tenderness, bruising, weakness or muscle spasms.

Conditions
Ankle Fracture
An ankle fracture, commonly known as a broken ankle, involves any type of break or crack in the tibia, fibula, or talus. Common causes of an ankle fracture may include a sports injury, a motor vehicle accident or a fall. An ankle fracture can include injury to one or more of the bones that make up the ankle joint. The more bones that are broken, the more complicated and severe the fracture is. Treatment for a broken ankle depends on the type and severity of the individual fracture, but may include wearing a cast or brace, applying ice and taking anti-inflammatory medication. Stable fractures can usually heal on their own within a few weeks, while more complicated ones may require surgery to reposition the broken bone.

Conditions
Meniscus Tear
The meniscus is a C-shaped piece of tough cartilage located in the knee, that acts as a shock absorber between the shinbone and the thighbone. There are two minisci within each knee. The meniscus on the inside part of the knee is known as the medial meniscus and the meniscus located on the outside of the knee is referred to as the lateral meniscus. A meniscus tear may be the result of an activity that forcefully twists or rotates the knee. A torn meniscus is a common knee injury that may be caused by playing sports, or a traumatic injury, and most frequently occurs when the knee joint is bent and the knee is then twisted. Torn menisci are common in athletes, but in some cases this condition may occur in older adults whose cartilage has worn away, as a result of many years of wear and tear of the joint.
