An orthopedic specialist explains why musculoskeletal care shouldn't stop at surgery or physical therapy. The talk covers functional medicine, orthobiologics, and metabolic approaches to healing that most doctors don't use yet.
We can offer our patients a spectrum from the normal, what they would have expected, an orthopedic surgeon's office, from surgical options to physical therapy. So holistic orthopedics at Pinnacle is a novel, integrative approach to musculoskeletal care. And my intent here is to combine functional medicine principles with integrative care, focused orthobiologics, you know, directed orthobiologics treatments for specific joints and tissues. With pure orthopedics, we can offer our patients a spectrum from the normal, what they would have expected, an orthopaedic surgeon's office, from surgical options to physical therapy to more innovative approaches like orthobiologics care, bioidentical hormone replacements, metabolic care. These are things that I think are super important and underutilized in musculoskeletal care. In particular.
