Orthopedics

Our highly trained physicians diagnose and treat a host of foot and ankle conditions from trauma, overuse and degenerative disease that can interfere with everyday functions and active lifestyles. Our services include activity and footwear recommendations, bracing, orthotics and other non-operative treatments. When surgery is the best option for patients with arthritis, deformity, tendinitis or other conditions, our team provides expert surgical care for long-term relief.

Our leading specialists provide diagnosis, management and treatment for a breadth of hand, wrist, arm and shoulder conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, tendonitis and traumatic injuries.

A dedicated team provides advanced, precision joint replacement and complex revision surgery for patients with arthritis, avascular necrosis and other conditions that limit joint function. We also offer non-operative treatment alternatives to joint replacement.

The podiatric team provides extensive care for patients with toe and foot conditions, aiming to decrease patients’ pain and maximally improve their function. The service treats many common conditions with non-surgical approaches, such as bracing and orthotics. When needed, the team offers minimally invasive treatments as well as surgical care for more complex conditions or injuries.

Our specialists provide relief from a broad range of spine disorders using the most advanced surgical and non-surgical treatment options. We offer time-tested procedures as well as minimally invasive and motion-sparing surgeries.

Montefiore’s sports medicine experts help patients manage and recover from athletic injuries. Multidisciplinary treatment plans tailored to each patient may include non-surgical procedures, such as physical therapy and bracing, as well as advanced arthroscopic or open surgical techniques when necessary.

Patients with fractures and related conditions receive thoughtful, tailored treatment from our fellowship-trained team. We have extensive experience treating a wide range of injuries, whether they are fresh, older or chronic.
