Who is an Orthopedic Surgeon?
An orthopedic surgeon is a medical specialist trained to treat injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. This includes bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and nerves. Orthopedic surgeons address a wide range of conditions, including sports injuries, chronic joint pain, arthritis, fractures, congenital deformities, and repetitive strain injuries.
Patients often seek the expertise of an orthopedic surgeon for issues such as torn ligaments, cartilage damage, joint degeneration, and conditions requiring surgical intervention like ACL reconstruction or joint replacement. The expertise of an orthopedic surgeon extends to both surgical and non-surgical treatments, ensuring patients receive comprehensive care tailored to their condition.

Common Orthopedic Conditions and Treatments
An orthopedic surgeon treats a wide variety of conditions affecting mobility, strength, and quality of life.
Sports Injuries and ACL Reconstruction
Sports injuries can cause significant discomfort and limit physical activity. ACL injuries are common among athletes and require careful diagnosis and treatment. An orthopedic surgeon evaluates the severity of the injury, determining whether non-surgical management or ACL reconstruction is needed. ACL reconstruction helps restore stability, prevent further damage, and allow patients to return to active lifestyles safely.
Knee Conditions and Arthroscopy
Knee injuries, such as meniscus tears, ligament damage, and cartilage issues, are frequently treated by an orthopedic surgeon. Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows surgeons to repair damage with precision, reducing recovery time and minimizing post-surgical discomfort. Patients benefit from targeted interventions that restore function and improve long-term mobility.
Hand and Wrist Disorders
Hand and wrist problems, including ganglion cysts, repetitive strain injuries, and tendon damage, are carefully treated by an orthopedic surgeon trained in microsurgery. Ganglion cyst removal surgery is performed with minimal tissue disruption, promoting faster healing and reduced scarring. Proper treatment of hand and wrist conditions restores function and improves quality of life for daily activities and occupational tasks.
Hip and Knee Replacement
Hip and knee replacements are essential for patients with severe joint degeneration or damage. An orthopedic surgeon evaluates each case, determining the best surgical approach to restore mobility and reduce pain. Modern replacement techniques are designed to improve alignment, stability, and long-term functionality. Postoperative rehabilitation is crucial for achieving optimal outcomes and returning to active routines.

Comprehensive Rehabilitation
Recovery following orthopedic surgery requires a structured rehabilitation program. An orthopedic surgeon collaborates with physical therapists to design customized rehabilitation plans that address strength, mobility, and functional restoration. Whether recovering from knee surgery, hip replacement, or hand surgery, patients receive guidance and support throughout every stage of their rehabilitation.
Patient-Focused Care
At TEC ORTHOPEDICS, patient care is guided by open communication and collaboration.
