Our DC Metro Orthopedic Surgeons will diagnose your problem and recommend the treatment plan that is best for you and your lifestyle.
General orthopaedic conditions and injuries we treat include:
- Sprains and Strains

We employ thorough physical examinations and state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, including digital x-ray, to help us evaluate your condition. For treatment, our doctors may recommend non-surgical options such as physical therapy, orthotics, cortisone injections, viscosupplementation and/or surgical procedures.
Injectable Cortisone is a powerful anti-inflammatory medication injected directly into joints such as shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees and ankles to decrease inflammation, which can subsequently decrease joint pain for several weeks.
Viscosupplementation Therapy is a series of injections often used to treat people with knee arthritis who are trying to delay surgery or are not candidates for knee replacement surgery. A solution of hyaluronic acid is injected directly into the knee joint to restore the cushioning and lubricating properties of normal joint fluid. Learn more about viscosupplementation therapy.
