Orthopedic Surgery and Trauma Service
Orthopedic surgery provides treatment for debilitating musculoskeletal disorders, such as sports- or strain-related injuries of the knee, shoulder, hip or hand, or other joints, bone fractures, trauma, joint diseases and injuries, and spinal injuries. NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has some of the country's top orthopedic surgery specialists. Orthopedic surgeons at NewYork-Presbyterian combine surgical expertise with pioneering clinical and basic research in areas such as stimulation of bone and tissue repair and total joint reconstruction. In fact, our outstanding program has been ranked 7th in the nation by the 2007 U.S.News and World Report America's Best Hospital's survey.
NewYork-Presbyterian offers a full range of orthopedic surgical services, with several areas of special expertise. Our surgeons are advancing the use of minimally invasive procedures using arthroscopy, a technique by which surgery is conducted through a very small incision using video imaging, and which carries the benefit of reductions in blood loss and shorter hospital stays.
