When you’re dealing with musculoskeletal pain or injury, the last thing you want is to be shuffled between different specialists and facilities. Finding a single, trusted practice that offers a full spectrum of care—from initial diagnosis to advanced surgery and final rehabilitation—is crucial for a seamless and effective recovery. At Austin Orthopedic Institute, we have built our practice around this integrated model, ensuring every aspect of your orthopedic health is managed with expertise and compassion under one roof.
Specialized Knee Care
The knees are essential for nearly every activity, and pain in these joints can be debilitating. Our team addresses a wide range of conditions, from degenerative arthritis and meniscus tears to complex ligament injuries like ACL tears. We develop personalized treatment plans that begin with conservative measures, but when necessary, our surgeons are experts in advanced procedures, including arthroscopic surgery and total knee replacement, designed to restore function and eliminate pain.
Advanced Shoulder Solutions
From throwing a ball to reaching for something on a high shelf, shoulder mobility is key to daily life. We treat common and complex conditions, including rotator cuff tears, instability, impingement, and arthritis. Our specialists utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to pinpoint the source of your pain and offer treatments ranging from injections and physical therapy to minimally invasive arthroscopic repairs and total shoulder replacement surgery.
Expert Hip Treatment
Hip pain can arise from many sources, including sports injuries, impingement, bursitis, or severe arthritis. Our goal is to preserve the natural hip joint whenever possible through non-surgical and arthroscopic techniques. For patients whose quality of life is severely impacted by advanced arthritis, we offer total hip replacement, a highly successful procedure that can dramatically reduce pain and restore an active lifestyle for years to come.
Immediate Trauma and Fracture Care
Accidents and unexpected injuries require immediate and highly specialized care. Our orthopedic surgeons are skilled in managing acute trauma, from simple fractures to severe, complex injuries requiring surgical intervention. We are equipped to provide prompt, expert treatment to ensure your bones heal correctly, minimizing complications and helping you get on the fastest and safest path to a full recovery after an injury.
Dedicated Sports Medicine
We are passionate about helping athletes of all levels—from weekend warriors to seasoned competitors—recover from injury and return to the activities they love. Our sports medicine program focuses not only on treating injuries like sprains, strains, and tears but also on preventing future problems. We provide comprehensive care that considers your specific athletic goals, helping you heal and perform at your peak potential.
Integrated Physical Therapy
Recovery doesn’t end with a procedure; in fact, that’s often just the beginning. We believe that direct collaboration between surgeons and physical therapists is essential for optimal outcomes. Our in-house physical therapy team works side-by-side with our doctors to create a cohesive and personalized rehabilitation plan. This integrated approach ensures your recovery is efficient, effective, and tailored to your specific needs every step of the way.
