Orthopedic surgery and procedures

At Dignity Health Medical Foundation, our doctors are fellowship-trained in spine surgery, joint replacement, and sports medicine and are considered to be among the leaders in their fields. And our perform both the state-of-art surgeries as well as more routine orthopedic procedures.

Orthopedic surgeries performed:

Elbow arthroscopy, tennis elbow debridement, elbow stabilization procedures, open reduction and internal fixation of elbow and forearm fractures, total elbow replacement

Open reduction and internal fixation of fractures and dislocations of the foot and ankle, ankle arthroscopy, open ankle stabilization

Total hip replacement, including the cutting-edge metal-on-metal replacement; revision total hip replacement, including the complex salvage procedures, utilizing the state-of-the-art strategies, including trabecular metal augments (tantalum), proximal and distal femoral replacement for severe bone loss tumor and infections, total femur replacement for salvage situations, open reduction and internal fixation of fractures and dislocations of the hip, percutanous pinning of hip fractures, intramedullary nailing of hip fractures, partial hip replacement (hip hemi-arthroplasty), core decompression of the hip for AVN, complex hip stabilization procedures for unstable total hip replacements and state-of-the-art hip arthroscopy.

Dignity Health Medical Foundation is leading the way in orthopedic surgeries by treating a number of conditions related to the back and spine. We use minimally invasive spine surgery procedures whenever possible in order to help return you to a pain-free, active life as quickly as possible.

Endoscopic spinal surgery, epidural block, herniated disc surgery, laminectomy, laminoplasty, laminotomy, minimally invasive spine surgery, spinal compression fracture repair, spinal cord stimulation, spinal fusion, spinal nerve block, and spinal reconstructive surgery for deformities.
