Joint Replacement and Revisions
It is an unfortunate fact of life that our joints wear out, often at a faster rate than the rest of our body. Especially vulnerable are the hips and knees. We perform several total knee replacements and total hip replacements weekly. In fact, our clinic performed the first total hip replacement in Anchorage, Alaska using the anterior approach. The anterior approach can improve mobility faster and decreases the risk of dislocation. We perform more partial knee replacements than other providers in Alaska. While not as common of an ailment, we also reconstruct shoulders. We work with you to personalize the best joint replacement option for your body and your needs. We also offer more complex joint revision surgery for previously placed total joints that have worn out or failed.

Total Hip Replacement Options
Minimally invasive, posterior hip replacement
Direct anterior hip replacement

Shoulder Replacement Options
Hemi-arthroplasty (both stemmed and resurfacing)
Total shoulder replacement
Reverse total shoulder replacement
Sports Medicine
Alaskans are known for living hard and playing harder. All too often that can come at a cost.
From an ACL injury to a rotator cuff injury, from sprains to strains, and from overuse injuries to falls and breaks, our team is ready to help get you back out there doing the things you love. We pride ourselves in using every non-operative solution as possible, saving surgery as a last resort. However, if the need arises for surgery, we have the experience and expertise to be there for you and walk you through every step of the way.

Fracture and Trauma Care
With Alaska’s world-renown ruggedness, it’s no surprise that emergency orthopedic care is a cornerstone of what we do. We treat urgent and emergent fractures and other soft-tissue injuries from across the state. From the common wrist and ankle fractures, to complex fractures such as pelvic fractures. We can help you get back into the wild whether that means splinting or casting, or whether you require surgery.


Pediatric Orthopedics
As in most facets of life, children and adolescents are not just small adults. The anatomy and biomechanics differ from the skeletally mature. We treat a myriad of conditions specific to the child and adolescent population including traumatic injuries such as fractures and sports and overuse injuries. We also can help with flatfeet and in-toeing. We can be your first-line evaluation for other congenital concerns and point you in the right direction for congenital repairs if needed.
From bursitis, dislocations, frozen shoulders, impingement and rotator cuff tear, labral tears, to clavicle injuries and AC separations, we understand the importance of optimizing your shoulder function and will work to get you comfort, mobility, and strength. Procedures we offer include arthroscopy, Mumford procedure, hemiarthroplasty, total and reverse total shoulder replacement, and rotator cuff repair, and labral repairs.
Regenerative Therapy
Beginning later in 2019, we will offer limited PRP injections for areas with the most promising evidence.
