About Foot & Ankle Surgery
Orthopaedic surgery is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disorders of the musculoskeletal system. This includes bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves - the structures that allow movement and provide structural support for the body.
Orthopaedic surgeons are trained to treat a wide range of conditions, from sports injuries and fractures to degenerative diseases like arthritis and osteoporosis. They use both surgical and non-surgical methods, including physical therapy, medication, and minimally invasive procedures.
When choosing an orthopaedic surgeon, consider their sub-specialty focus (knee, hip, spine, shoulder, hand, foot & ankle, sports medicine, or pediatric), board certification, hospital affiliations, and whether they accept your insurance plan. Reading patient reviews and comparing credentials across multiple providers can help you make an informed decision.
Common Questions
When should I see an orthopaedic surgeon?
Consider seeing an orthopaedic surgeon if you have persistent joint or bone pain lasting more than a few weeks, limited range of motion, a sports injury, a fracture, or if your primary care physician recommends a specialist evaluation.
What is the difference between an orthopaedic surgeon and a regular doctor?
Orthopaedic surgeons complete additional years of specialized training in musculoskeletal conditions beyond medical school. They are qualified to perform surgical procedures on bones, joints, and soft tissues, as well as provide non-surgical treatments like injections and rehabilitation plans.
How do I find an orthopaedic surgeon who accepts my insurance?
Use the filters on this page to narrow by location and specialty, then contact the provider's office directly to verify insurance acceptance. Many orthopaedic practices accept major plans including UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, and Anthem.
