Our specialty areas are listed below. Please complete the form below or call to request an appointment.
Shoulder
Shoulder injuries can include damaged rotator cuff and frozen shoulder as well as inflammation of the shoulder and osteoarthritis. Shoulder injuries include a wide range of diagnoses such as rotator cuff strains or tears, labral injuries, fractures, frozen shoulder, shoulder arthritis or even neck related problems.
Back and Neck
Neck and back pain can prevent you from living a normal life. Neck and back treatments can be needed due to an injury, a congenital defect, or a chronic condition. Typical types of issues are broken neck (cervical fracture), compressions of discs in the neck and back or herniated discs. Our expert physicians can help identify the area that is causing pain and address it through treatments or surgical interventions.
Foot and Ankle
Even the most minor foot or ankle issue can severely limit a person’s mobility and have a major impact on their quality of life. Regardless of the cause, most foot injuries and deformities are initially treated using a conservative approach with rest, corrective shoes, inserts, orthotics, and immobilization as well as anti-inflammatory medications. When unique conditions require it, corrective surgical actions can be taken. Our goal is to return you to pre-injury stability and functionality. Treatment and recovery are tailored to the individual on a per-patient basis.
Hand, Wrist and Elbow
Hand, wrist, and elbow injuries and pain include the common carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist strain and breaks, sports injuries and arthritis. These injuries can interfere with day-to-day functions by limiting your ability to write, type, bathe, cook, exercise, and other activities of daily living. Our expert specialists use innovative methodologies to treat these injuries.
Hip
The hip bones and pelvis are the base of the spinal column and body. A normal hip joint has a cushioning surface that helps the bones glide without friction or pain. As you age, your hip joint experiences a collective wear and tear absorbed by the cartilage lining. Once the thigh bone (femur) begins to rub against the pelvis, inflammation can lead to increased discomfort, chronic hip pain and/or osteoarthritis. Hip conditions can be treated through rest, physical therapy, reconstructive surgery, or complete hip replacement surgery. The physicians at Coastal Orthopedic Associates are experts in choosing the right surgery for you.
Sports Medicine
Sports medicine is specific to the care of active people and athletes. Whether a professional athlete, weekend warrior or individual with a demanding job, our providers specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of those injuries that take you out of your game. Just like on the field, this process often involves a team approach among family doctors, orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists and trainers. With the use of both operative and nonoperative interventions, our goal is to help athletes of all skill levels get back to their sport and reduce the risk of recurrent injury.
Joint Replacement
We specialize in joint replacement surgeries at Coastal Orthopedic Associates. Joint replacements such as the hip or knee can help you live a better lifestyle and are one of the most common surgeries in the United States. Coastal Orthopedic Associates understands that receiving exceptional care before, during and after your joint replacement procedure is essential to a full recovery.
Knee
Knees provide the stability and strength needed for walking, running, crouching and jumping, so it's no surprise that knee injuries and disorders are among the most common orthopedic problems. Knee cartilage, bony structures, muscles, ligaments and tendons are susceptible to traumatic injury and degenerative diseases like osteoarthritis. When ice, rest, and anti-inflammatory medications fail to provide relief, knee surgery may be a viable option to reduce pain and restore any mechanical function that was lost. Our team of specialists strives to efficiently and accurately diagnose injuries and prescribe treatments to our patients.
