Orthopaedic Surgery
At St. Claire HealthCare, we understand it’s important to live pain-free, especially when you’re eager for injuries to heal. To help you achieve your goals, our orthopedic surgeons offer the best care in Southeast Kentucky. Let our orthopedic specialists help you get your life back. These orthopedic experts have specialized training in surgery and treat conditions and diseases associated with the musculoskeletal system (bones and connective tissues). Our orthopedic surgeons treat patients with many different concerns, such as hip pain, fractures, sports injuries, and more. Orthopedic surgery is sometimes necessary to help treat age-related concerns or in the aftermath of an injury accident.
It’s important to know that just because you’ve been referred to an orthopedic surgeon it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll end up needing an operation. In fact, orthopedic surgeons don’t resort to surgical treatment until all potentially useful conservative/nonsurgical treatment options have been exhausted.
