Dr. Skedros can operate a variety of other procedures, from bone fractures, to knee scopes, and even carpal tunnel syndrome. Other than surgery, some joint problems can also be treated with a synthetic injection called cortisone, a hormone that Dr. Skedros has written about numerous times. If you have questions regarding whether Dr. Skedros can help you with your condition, please contact us for a consultation.
See “Patient Resources” for information for what to do before and after surgery.
