General Practitioners

Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Blood Tests – as part of your examination, your orthopaedist may order a variety of blood tests. Some conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, may be identified by the presence of a specific substance in your blood. You may be asked to fast prior to the exam. Usually a blood test is a simple matter that involves withdrawing a small amount of blood from your arm.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia (also called Fibrositis) – a chronic, widespread pain in muscles and soft tissues surrounding the joints throughout the body.
Plantar Fasciitis
In addition to heel spurs and plantar fasciitis, heel pain can occur from a ruptured achilles tendon. It may also be a result of overextending the heel at an unnatural angle, known as excessive pronation.
Primary Care
Prior to your scheduled appointment, complete our patient registration and health history form and return it to us in the stamped, self addressed envelope. If your insurance plan requires a referral, please have your primary care physician obtain your referral prior to your appointment. Have your insurance card with you and available for the receptionist to view. Please bring any x-ray or imaging studies pertaining to your orthopaedic condition(s) with you to your first appointment. This allows our team to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your condition.
Family Practice
Emergency Care
In order to better serve our patients, we offer urgent care services by appointment between the hours of 8 AM – 8 PM Monday through Friday, and at our Linden Oaks Office from 9 AM – 1 PM on Saturday.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome – a condition in which the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, a narrow confined space. Since the median nerve provides sensory and motor functions to the thumb and three middle fingers, many symptoms may result.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
Bone Scan – two very different kinds of tests may be called bone scans. One type tests the density of the bone and is used to diagnose osteoporosis. This type of bone scan uses narrow X-ray beams or ultrasound to see how solid the bone is. No preparation is required for this test, which takes only a few minutes and has no side effects. (See Dual-Photon Absorptiometry, Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry, and Peripheral Bone Density Testing.)
MRI
An MRI (magnetic resonance image) uses magnetic fields and a sophisticated computer to take high-resolution pictures of your bones and soft tissues, resulting in a cross-sectional image of your body. It can be used to help diagnose torn muscles, ligaments and cartilage, herniated disks, hip or pelvic problems and other conditions.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Computed Tomography (CT Scan) – a CT scan (computed tomography) combines X-rays with computer technology to produce a more detailed, cross-sectional image of your body. It may be ordered if your doctor suspects a tumor or a fracture that doesn’t appear on X-rays (such as in your collarbone or pelvis) or if you’ve had severe trauma to the chest, abdomen, pelvis or spinal cord. The process is painless. You lie motionless on a table as it slides into the center of the cylinder-like CT scanner. An X-ray tube slowly rotates around you, taking many pictures from all directions. A computer combines the images to produce a clear, two-dimensional view on a television screen. You may need to drink or be injected with barium sulfate or a dye so that certain parts of your body can be seen more clearly. The drink has a chalky taste and may make you feel nauseous; a dye injection may be moderately painful. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant before undergoing a CT scan.

Orthopedics
Greater Rochester Orthopedics is proud to announce that we have won the Rochester Democrat and Chronical’s Reacher’s Choice Award two years in a row.
Arthroscopy
Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery, or arthroscopy, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a small camera called an arthroscope. The arthroscope is inserted through a small incision to examine or repair specific areas within or around the shoulder joint.
Pinched Nerve
Joint Replacement
The materials used in a total joint replacement are designed to enable the joint to move just like a normal joint.
Arthroscopy
Depending on the complexity of the repairs that need to be made, shoulder arthroscopy may be used to correct the following conditions...
Hip Replacement
A total hip replacement is recommended for patients who have severe cartilage damage on their femur (leg bone) and acetabulum (socket). During a total hip replacement, the damaged bone and cartilage is removed and replaced by prosthetics in four steps...
Knee Replacement
Typically, arthritis is the most common reason for a knee replacement surgery to be performed. For those with severe joint deterioration in their knees, everyday life can be a struggle. Chronic pain from damaged knee cartilage can make it difficult to walk, climb stairs or even stand.

Corns
Physical Examination – your physician can tell a lot about your health simply by looking at you. Obvious signs and symptoms include weak (atrophied) or asymmetrical muscles, improper alignment, swelling, changes in skin color (such as bruises or redness that might indicate inflammation) and growths such as cysts, calluses or corns. But the physical examination is much more than just a cursory look. It can also involve gait analysis (how you walk), palpation, muscle testing, flexibility (range of motion) testing, reflex response, and laboratory tests such as a complete blood count and urine analysis.

Calluses

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Sports Medicine at Greater Rochester Orthopaedics focuses on meeting the diagnostic and treatment needs of both serious and recreational athletes. We understand the role activity plays in keeping our patients fit and are dedicated to helping them get back to their activity.
Physical Therapy
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket system that consists of the humerus (upper arm bone), scapula (shoulder blade) and clavicle (collarbone.) These bones are connected by tendons and covered with articular cartilage which helps separate the bones and allows them to move more easily. In patients with severe shoulder pain and limited range of motion, medication and physical therapy is recommended as a first step. If these treatments don’t provide relief or improve the patient’s range of motion, shoulder replacement surgery may be recommended.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen Shoulder – frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is caused when the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint contracts, forming scar tissue. This limits movement in the shoulder.
Tennis Elbow
Epicondylitis – epicondylitis, also known as Tennis Elbow, occurs when there are small tears in the tendon that connect the forearm muscle to the arm bone at the elbow joint. Pain occurs on the outside of the elbow.
Heel Pain
Back Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

Ankle Sprain
A sprained ankle is a very common injury. Approximately 25,000 people experience it each day. A sprained ankle can happen to athletes and non-athletes, children and adults. It can happen when you take part in sports and physical fitness activities. It can also happen when you simply step on an uneven surface, or step down at an angle. The ligaments of the ankle hold the ankle bones and joint in position. They protect the ankle joint from abnormal movements-especially twisting, turning, and rolling of the foot. A ligament is an elastic structure. Ligaments usually stretch within their limits, and then go back to their normal positions. When a ligament is forced to stretch beyond its normal range, a sprain occurs. A severe sprain causes actual tearing of the elastic fibers.
Calluses
Hammertoes
Heel Spurs
Herniated Disc – a painful rupture of the outer cartilage of a disc that results when the cushion that lies between vertebrae in the spine is pushed outside its normal position; symptoms can include pain, weakness, and/or numbness in the legs (lumbar disc) or arms (cervical disc).
Heel Pain
The highly trained orthopaedic specialists at Greater Rochester Orthopaedics have extensive experience diagnosing and treating the source of heel pain. Call (585) 295-5476 to request an appointment at one of our orthopaedic offices in the Rochester area.
Foot Pain
Plantar Fasciitis
Heel pain, often the result of Plantar Fasciitis, can be a painful and long-lasting condition without proper diagnosis and treatment.
