Arthroscopic Knee Reconstruction Surgery
Orthopedic Specialists of South Florida
If you are in need of orthopedic treatment for a knee injury or condition
and you reside anywhere in Miami-Dade County or south Florida, we urge
you to contact one of our medical staff to set up a consultation with
an orthopedic surgeon as soon as possible.
Our orthopedic medical team is made up of Board-Certified and Fellowship-trained
physician-surgeons who have years of experience in successfully performing
surgeries and treatments for such medical conditions. We warmly welcome
new patients who wish to learn more about the benefits of such treatment.
For knee injuries or conditions, our physicians begin by exploring conservative, non-operative treatment options before pursuing surgical intervention. The conservative treatment program consists of conditioning exercises and physical therapy - as pain decreases - to gradually improve motion, strength, and agility.
The second option is arthroscopic knee surgery, which is performed on an outpatient basis. In arthroscopy, a miniaturized camera affords the surgeon an exact view of a meniscus tear or damaged articular cartilage (cartilage that covers bones, bears weight and reduces friction). Surgery is performed to repair any tears, stabilize the knee, and relieve knee pain.
