Knee

No other joint hurts people and hinders their lifestyle more than the knee. Physicians at Northern Arizona Orthopaedics have specialized training in evaluating and treating these important weight-bearing joints.

Knee problems are common among young and old, and professional athletes and light recreational activity-goers. Problems range from ligament sprains and tears to osteoarthritis, the wearing away of joint cartilage.

Advancements in knee surgeries have resulted in significant benefits for patients. Arthroscopic techniques and partial knee replacement, which conserves healthy bone, are two proven minimally invasive approaches that can help patients relieve their pain and return to their activities.
