Special Expertise & Innovative Care

Saint Barnabas physicians are highly skilled in the latest arthroscopic techniques for diagnosis and repair of injuries. As the region's most experienced orthopaedic team, we utilize the most advanced minimally invasive procedures, which enable patients to regain function more quickly. Some of these techniques include ligament and tendon reconstruction, rotator cuff repairs, sports related fractures and the latest techniques available today in sports medicine.

Additionally, we offer the latest non-surgical alternatives to improve range of motion and preserve function. We also offer comprehensive joint replacement surgery when appropriate.

Conditioning, Training and Wellness Programs
The Sports Medicine Institute offers specific conditioning and training, general training and wellness programs to keep athletes performing at peak levels through every season. We also teach injury prevention to provide protection from further stress while recovering from an injury.

For patients, this may include self-directed exercise programs to increase strength and flexibility or other conditioning programs performed at  the Institute. We also offer assistive devices, orthotics and other protective braces and splints for interim mobilization.

For competitive athletes and teams at all levels, our physicians perform specialized exams, evaluations and treatments.

Patients can elect to receive additional training and services at the Center for Health and Wellness based on their test results and overall conditioning goals.
