Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide state of the art surgical and nonsurgical orthopaedic care in the areas of trauma, sports medicine and elective reconstructive surgery.

We will strive to maintain a complement of physicians who are certified by The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgeons and will provide quality orthopaedic care to our patients. We will allow sufficient time to properly evaluate, counsel and answer questions raised by our patients. We will promptly make referrals to competent tertiary centers for those problems which do not fall within our realm of expertise.

We commit ourselves to continuing medical education and adding newer technology as it becomes available to ensure our patients they are receiving up to date quality care.

We will always put the welfare of the patient before any financial, political or personal considerations. We will not let economic aspects of the patients medical care impede proper evaluation and prescriptions.

In summary, we honor the hippocratic oath and pledge the best possible orthopaedic surgical care for those people entrusted to our services.
