Most of us, at some point in our lives, will visit the doctor for musculoskeletal problems, conditions that include arthritis and injuries to the bones, muscles, tendons or
ligaments. Lakeland’s orthopedic team of surgeons, rheumatologists, radiologists, anesthesiologists, therapists, nurses and educators are experts in diagnosing and treating these conditions. Using advanced technologies and minimally invasive procedures, our team provides comprehensive treatment that may help patients return to the activities they enjoy as quickly as possible.
Rehabilitation
Lakeland provides our community with the most comprehensive and highest quality rehabilitation services in southwest Michigan. We offer a full-range of hospital-based and outpatient physical therapy and rehabilitation services that help patients return to their previous level of performance quickly and safely. We provide specialists in geriatrics, ergonomics and spine care; certified therapists in wound care and pediatrics.
Technology
Lakeland also offers an important new technology in orthopedic surgery: computer-assisted joint replacement surgery. It combines the precision and accuracy of computer technology with the skill of the surgeon to offer state-of-the-art alignment, the key factor in quality outcomes. The computer system provides the orthopedic surgeon with real-time tracking of the surgical instruments during surgery as well as information on what adjustments can be made for the level of precision only possible with microscopic computerized assistance.
