Orthopedics
Joint replacement and other orthopedic procedures can seem intimidating. But the Orthopedics department at West Tennessee Healthcare offers the expertise you need to guide you through every step of the journey, from start to finish.
The Specialized Orthopedics Expertise You Need to Return to Pain-free Living
Whether you’re experiencing pain and discomfort from a chronic medical condition or the effects of an injury, our team of orthopedic doctors offers the expertise you need to get back to feeling your best. We offer comprehensive care for a full range of bone and joint issues, including specialized expertise in knee replacement and hip replacement.
A Full Range of Nonsurgical and Surgical Orthopedics Options
In all cases, physicians first look to nonsurgical options for treatment of knee pain and other problems. But when those therapies have been unsuccessful in alleviating pain and restoring abilities, our orthopedic group offers surgical procedures to help. State-of-the-art technology combined with specialized expertise and years of experience offers patients the best in orthopedics care.
