Osteoporosis
Arthritis

Plantar Fasciitis
Primary Care
Family Practice
Sports medicine is not a medical specialty in itself. Most sports medicine doctors are certified in internal medicine, emergency medicine, family medicine, orthopaedics, or another specialty and then acquire additional training with a 2-year fellowship in sports medicine to be certified as a sports medicine specialist.
Emergency Care
Several years ago, my daughter had broken her forearm while playing on our back yard jungle gym. We took her to the emergency room to get her arm put in a cast. When the cast came off, we realized the arm was not set properly and she only had about 30% rotation ability. We then were referred to Children's Hospital in Omaha where her arm was re-broken and her bones were drilled our to receive rods to get her bones to heal correctly. The surgery went well and in time she regained nearly 100% use of her arm. We thought we were out of the woods as several years had passed and she had no problems. However, after about 6 or so years, my wife and I noticed our daughter became reluctant to "stress" her arm. Within a week of noticing, she was in so much pain, she just held her arm to her stomach with her other hand. That's when we found Dr. Hurlbut. He took x-rays of her arm, and saw that the rod was being pushed out of her bone and was plucking a nerve every time she moved. Seeing how much pain she was in, he immediately scheduled surgery for her, so she could get some reprieve. Dr. Hurlbut sat down with me and my wife and in great detail, explained the surgery and what he needed to do. He gave us as much time as we needed to ask questions and share concerns. (He was also very kind and caring with my wife when she cried). The surgery went exactly as he had explained and our daughter is back to her normal self. I wished we had found Dr. Hurlbut when the accident happened, but we do count ourselves VERY fortunate to have found him to put an end to our daughters pain.

Internal Medicine

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Dr. Patrick Hurlbut performed rotator cuff repair surgery and carpal tunnel surgery on both hands at the same time 6 months ago and I could not be more pleased! I met with 4 orthopaedic surgeons before a doctor friend recommended Dr. Hurlbut. The doctor and his staff spend 2 HOURS with me the first time I met with him and explained in detail my condition and what he was recommending my treatment be. Dr. Hurlbut's physical therapy practice is outstanding. They know exactly what the doctor wants them to do with his patients and he communicates with the physical therapists regularly. Carol my PT was excellent! EVERY person at Prairie Orthopaedic & Plastic Surgery is outstanding and I cannot recommend them more highly!

Ultrasound
Ultrasound: An ultrasound sends high-frequency sound waves over your body and stimulates deep body tissues. Vibrations produced by sound waves help to stimulate blood flow and facilitate the healing process. This procedure can also be used to improve metabolism and enhance the adhesiveness of bones after a fracture.
MRI
Your surgeon diagnoses a rotator cuff tear based on a physical examination and X-rays. A rotator cuff tear is best viewed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Your doctor will diagnose arthritis with a medical history, a physical exam and X-rays of the affected part. Computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are also ordered to diagnose arthritis.

Joint Replacement
Conventional surgical methods such as total shoulder joint replacement are not very effective in the treatment of rotator cuff arthropathy. Reverse total shoulder replacement is an advanced surgical technique specifically designed for rotator cuff tear arthropathy, a condition where you suffer from both shoulder arthritis and a rotator cuff tear.

He subsequently earned a Certificate of Added Qualification in Hand Surgery from the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery.
Bunions
Arthroscopy
Rotator cuff repair may be performed by open or arthroscopic surgery. In arthroscopy, the space for rotator cuff tendons will be increased and the cuff tear is repaired using suture anchors. These anchor sutures help in attaching the tendons to the shoulder bone. Following the surgery, you may be advised to practice motion and strengthening exercises.
Hip Replacement
Minimally invasive total hip replacement is a surgical procedure performed through one or two small incisions rather than the single long incision of 10–12-inches as in the traditional approach.
Knee Replacement
Total knee replacement, also called total knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the worn out or damaged surfaces of the knee joint are removed and replaced with an artificial prosthesis.
Knee Arthroscopy
Dr. Hurlbut's passion has been the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder, elbow and hand injuries but he also continues to practice in many areas of orthopaedics including total joint replacement and knee arthroscopy.
Mohs Surgery
Mohs surgery, also known as Mohs micrographic surgery, is a surgical procedure to treat skin cancer. During the surgery, individual layers of skin tissue are excised (removed) and inspected under a microscope one at a time until all cancerous tissue has been removed.

He joins the practice from California where he completed an Integrated Residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Loma Linda University, and a Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery Fellowship at the University of California Irvine Medical Center.

Occupational Therapy
Your doctor may prescribe anti-inflammatory medicine and may recommend occupational therapy or physiotherapy, which includes exercises and heat treatment. In severe cases, surgery may be suggested. The type of surgery depends on the age and severity of the condition. In the elderly with severe arthritis, joint replacement is a good option. A common surgery for the treatment of shoulder arthritis is arthroplasty (replacement of the damaged joint), which may be total shoulder arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty.

Ingrown Toenails
I recently decided to go to Prairie Orthopaedic & Plastic Surgery on a limb and I am SO happy I did. I have had my in-grown toenail done three times by my primary care physician (Not at Prairie Ortho). Every time I got the procedure done, I was in so much pain and they kept growing back. I came to Prairie Orthopaedic & Plastic Surgery to see if Dr. Krejci could help my situation. SHE DID! She not only removed my ingrown toenail but she did it with out me feeling any pain! She also gave me options and suggestions to make sure they don't grow back. I'm very pleased with not only Dr. Krejci but everyone in the office. The office ladies are SO nice, and very good at working with your schedule. They also think of you if a slot opens to try and get you in sooner. Both Dr. Krejci, her nurse Karla, and Chad are all VERY nice. They never made me feel bad about having ugly toes! They also were very good at keeping conversation, and showing they cared! I will continue to see Dr. Kara Krejci with any foot problems I have in the future!
