Knee

The knee is a joint that unites the upper and lower leg, and is a system of moving parts consisting of cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It is a hinge that supplies our body with the strength to run, squat, jump, and turn. The knee is vulnerable to a number of injuries and conditions because of its inability to rotate in every direction.

At Eastern Oklahoma Orthopedic Center, our specialists have a matchless expertise for successfully treating knee injuries and conditions. They provide leading-edge techniques and procedures—from minimally invasive knee replacement to partial knee resurfacing—to effectively help restore patients’ mobility and function. Whether you have osteoarthritis of the knee, a torn ACL, or a torn meniscus, our specialists are devoted to developing an individualized treatment plan to help safely return you to health. Please be assured that our specialists always consider using nonoperative methods to repair your injury first. If necessary to achieve optimal results, they will turn to surgical intervention.
