Orthopedics at PreferredSC
Minimally Invasive Procedures and Same-day Discharge. The fastest way to get bone and muscle relief.
Arthroscopic Procedures
Arthroscopic procedures utilize new technology to perform surgery with lower risks and quicker recovery times. The surgeon makes a small incision and inserts a camera to complete the procedure without having to open the joint. This is a powerful alternative to traditional open surgery. Our surgeons have worked with many different people with a range of joint and muscle problems. Collectively our surgeons specialize in knee, hip, foot, hand, and general orthopedic surgery. They perform total joint replacements as well as a variety of other procedures.
What We Do
Medical conditions, repetitive motion, and trauma to the hand or shoulder can cause a host of conditions including fractures, dislocation, nerve/vascular problems, and growths or tumors. These can in the hand or shoulder itself as well as in the wrist or forearm.
If conservative treatments such as physical therapy or medications do not alleviate your pain, our surgeons will recommend surgery to help restore the function in your hand. In most cases we utilize minimally invasive surgery techniques which result in less blood loss and tissue damage, less pain, and a faster recovery.
Total joint replacement is when parts of a damaged point are replaced with a metal, plastic, or ceramic prosthesis, restoring the function of a healthy joint. Generally patients getting knee or hip replacements have damaged cartilage around the bone because of arthritis, fractures, or other medical conditions. If conservative treatments such as physical therapy or medications do not alleviate your pain, you may be a good candidate for total joint replacement. Joint replacements generally last for many years and make daily tasks much easier.
Most of our procedures are minimally invasive: they are done through one or two smaller incisions and result in less blood loss and reduced scarring relative to traditional knee surgery. With larger replacements, the surgeon may opt for a different type of surgery.

Ankle and foot problems include debilitating pain, arthritis, developmental defects, or deformity caused by poorly healed bones. By correcting the issue you can often relieve the pain.
If conservative treatments such as physical therapy or medications do not alleviate your pain, our surgeons will recommend surgery to help restore the function in your foot. In most cases we utilize minimally invasive surgery techniques which result in less blood loss and tissue damage, less pain, and a faster recovery.
Our surgeons are equipped to help infants with club feet to high school athletes. Pediatric Orthopedics covers conditions including cerebral palsy, limb fractures, congenital deformities, and gait abnormalities. By correcting the issue you can often relieve pain, correct posture, or get your child back in the game they love.
