Why Choose Us?
We’re at the top of our game. We’re known for providing what patients and their families want most: advanced approaches and compassionate care.
You may have heard about MedSport, our comprehensive sports medicine service. Or our new Sport Injury Prevention Center, which will focus on preventing sport-related injuries and promoting the health of athletes of all ages and abilities.
You may not know that our faculty and students are developing the newest technologies in our Orthopaedic Research Laboratories … or that the U.S. News ranks us among the top 40 in the United States. In fact, we have been pioneers in orthopaedic surgery care, education and research since 1930.
What are we doing today?
- Right now, we are the only hospital in the state of Michigan that uses the new Vertical Expandable Prosthetic Titanium Rib, or VEPTR, to treat children with severe spinal curvatures.
- We provide comprehensive services for adults and children with acute, chronic and developmental needs – and work with services throughout the premier University of Michigan Health System to provide the best individual treatment.
- Our hip replacement surgery is less invasive and requires less recovery time.
- And we’re using newer, stronger materials for joint replacements – so that replacement doesn’t become a way of life for you.
Because of new technology and surgical procedures – and the depth and breath of our experience – we can offer the very best to our patients.
We do orthopaedic surgery. We specialize in hope. Please contact us to discover your own Michigan Difference.
