Our orthopedic surgeons get you back in motion
Orthopedic injuries or illnesses can put you on life’s sidelines. If you have joint or muscle pain, you might avoid everyday tasks or exercise. For many, surgery can dramatically improve movement, relieve symptoms and prevent future complications from injury or disease.
At UW Medicine, you get a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns from one of the top ranked orthopedics programs in the nation. Our team of surgeons specializes in caring for the musculoskeletal system — including the bones, joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles. With multiple convenient locations throughout Puget Sound, we are here to help throughout your treatment and beyond.
