Orthopedic Conditions We Treat

Broward Health orthopedic specialists treat injuries and conditions affecting the bones, joints and muscles. Care is tailored to help reduce pain and improve movement.

Your Orthopedic Care Starts Here

Broward Health treats a wide range of bone, joint and muscle conditions, from sudden injuries like fractures and sports injuries to ongoing problems such as arthritis, back and neck pain, hand and wrist conditions and foot and ankle injuries. Patients across Broward County have access to orthopedic specialists who can diagnose the cause of your symptoms and recommend any testing or treatment you may need.

It's worth seeing an orthopedic specialist if pain, stiffness, weakness or limited movement is affecting your daily activities, or if an injury isn't improving on its own.

Specialized Orthopedic Care

  • ACL Tears

    A torn ACL doesn’t always mean surgery. Our orthopedic team confirms the injury with on-site imaging, then builds a plan around your activity goals. That can mean guided physical therapy and bracing for some, or arthroscopic, minimally invasive reconstruction for others, with rehabilitation to rebuild knee strength and stability.

  • Adhesive Capsulitis (Frozen Shoulder)

    Getting a frozen shoulder moving again starts with physical therapy and targeted injections to ease pain and restore motion. If stiffness holds on, our specialists offer additional procedures to free the joint.

  • Arthritis

    Arthritis care here is built in stages, beginning with physical therapy, medication and joint injections to reduce pain and keep you moving. When joint damage is advanced, our surgeons offer partial and total joint replacement, including minimally invasive and robotic-assisted options.

  • Bursitis

    Most bursitis responds to conservative care, so we begin with activity changes, physical therapy and anti-inflammatory measures to calm the irritated joint. When pain lingers in the shoulder, hip, elbow or knee, targeted injections can bring relief.

  • Knee and Hip Injuries

    Knee and hip injuries get a clear diagnosis first, using on-site X-ray and MRI to pinpoint the damage. From there, treatment ranges from physical therapy and injections to minimally invasive repair, and when surgery is the right call, joint replacement with robotic-assisted techniques.

  • Sprains and Strains

    Rest, bracing and physical therapy form the core of recovery from a sprain or strain, with a plan to restore strength and range of motion. For a new or worsening injury, same-day and next-day appointments with on-site imaging help you get seen quickly.

  • Tendonitis

    Calming the inflamed tendon is the first goal with tendonitis, through rest, activity changes and physical therapy. If pain in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee or heel doesn’t settle, injections can help quiet it down.

  • TMJ Syndrome

    Jaw pain, clicking and trouble chewing from TMJ syndrome are usually treated without surgery. Care includes therapy, bite support and pain management tailored to the cause, whether it’s injury, joint wear or teeth grinding.

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

    Relief from carpal tunnel syndrome often starts simply, with bracing, activity changes and injections to ease pressure on the nerve and the numbness and tingling it causes. When symptoms continue, our specialists offer a minimally invasive release to restore hand function.

  • Hand and Upper Arm Injuries

    Fractures, dislocations, tendon and nerve damage in the hand and upper arm each call for a different fix, whether that’s splinting, physical therapy or surgical repair. The goal throughout is restoring your grip, strength and everyday use of the hand and arm.

  • Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

    Easing thoracic outlet syndrome usually begins with physical therapy and posture-focused care to take pressure off the nerves and vessels in the shoulder and arm. If symptoms persist, our specialists discuss further options suited to your case.

  • Neck and Back Pain

    Nonsurgical care comes first for neck and back pain, including physical therapy, medication and injections to reduce pain and improve movement. For more complex disc or nerve conditions, our spine specialists offer surgical options when they’re the right choice.

  • Sciatica

    Sciatica treatment targets the source of the nerve compression, often easing the radiating leg pain with physical therapy, medication or injections. When conservative care isn’t enough, our spine specialists evaluate you for the next step.

  • Foot and Ankle Injuries

    Sprains, fractures, tendon tears and chronic instability in the foot and ankle are diagnosed with on-site imaging, then treated with bracing, physical therapy or surgical repair as needed. For sudden injuries, same-day and next-day appointments help you get care quickly and get back on your feet.
