Athletic and Occupational Trauma Surgery
“If the choice is still yours, why not choose the best that traditional, private practice medicine has to offer?”
Welcome to The Knee and Shoulder Centers website. The information you will find here has been designed to educate you about many common (and not so common) knee, shoulder, and elbow conditions, acquaint you with our practice, and assist you in scheduling an appointment with us. You will find that what we offer our patients is quite unique in today's environment of HMO's, "Managed Care" and declining patient service, choice and convenience. We are completely independent.
We maintain no contract agreements with Managed Care insurance companies, which leaves us free to provide our patients with the best personalized service and clinical expertise that traditional private medicine has to offer. In our practice you will never have to wonder whether our treatment recommendations have been influenced by restrictive HMO policies or a financial need to preserve a Managed Care contract.
We firmly believe that the only person who should be making decisions regarding your medical treatment is you, in consultation with the most knowledgeable physician available. We still regard the physician-patient relationship as an inviolable trust.
