Arthroscopic Surgery
When you trust your orthopedic care to a team of specialists, arthroscopic surgeries have a much greater potential for success. Dr. Nic Gay and Dr. Masi Reynolds can perform a number of beneficial procedures using arthroscopic surgery. Both physicians have combined experience in sports medicine and orthopedic surgery.
Arthroscopic surgery is instrumental in the investigation and monitoring of injuries and diseases of the joints. Small incisions allow Dr. Nic Gay and Dr. Masi Reynolds to carry out an examination and provide treatment, without fully opening up the joint.
At Silicon Valley Orthopaedics in California, arthroscopic surgery allows our team to determine the suitability of joint preservation treatment options. This conservative treatment approach focuses on restoring movement and function to an affected joint while trying to maintain the integrity of the original structure.
Reduced Scarring and Recovery Time
Reduced scarring and recovery time are additional potential benefits of using arthroscopic surgery in place of traditional, open surgery. By limiting the amount of trauma to surrounding tissues, smaller incisions and tools result in scars that are barely visible.
