Knee

The knee is a joint that unites the thigh with the leg, and is a system of moving parts consisting of cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The knee is also a hinge that provides our body with the strength to run, squat, jump, and turn. However, the knee is vulnerable to a number of injuries and conditions because of its inability to rotate in every direction.

At Coastal Orthopedics, our fellowship-trained knee specialists have a matchless expertise for successfully treating knee injuries and conditions. They provide leading-edge techniques and procedures to effectively restore our patients’ mobility and function. Common procedures our specialists perform include minimally invasive knee replacement, partial knee replacement, arthroscopy, and steroid injections. Whether you have osteoarthritis of the knee, a torn ACL or meniscus, or need a total knee replacement, our knee surgeons are devoted to developing an individualized treatment plan to safely return you to healthy and active living.

If you have a knee injury that is preventing you from doing what you love to do, the knee specialists of Coastal Orthopedics will provide you with a treatment plan dedicated to restoring your function and mobility.
