This system is made up of your bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints, and nerves. Our orthopedic surgeons at Kings County pride ourselves in not only being able to drastically increase patient quality of life through surgery but we maintain continuity of care with all of our patients to make sure quality of life is maintained. The subspecialties we cover include:
- Adult reconstruction (Hip and Knee)
- Elbow
- Foot and ankle
- Hand and wrist
- Pediatrics
- Shoulder (including arthroplasty)
- Spine
- Sports
- Trauma
- Orthopedic oncology
We work extensively with our radiologists, anesthesiologists, and physical therapists before, during, and after surgery to have a speedy recovery and to reduce pain for our patients.
