About Us: About the Practice

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Ithaca Orthopaedic Group. Our focus is the treatment and prevention of injuries to the musculoskeletal system.

The work of an orthopedic physician involves the body’s entire musculoskeletal system such as bones, muscles, joints, tendons, and nerves. Orthopedic problems may be congenital (from birth) or degenerative (progressively worsening due to aging or disease). They may also be caused by accident and overuse.

Everyone on our health care team is committed to providing timely, individualized, state-of-the art care. By working together – in collaboration with you, our patient – we can help you recuperate from injuries and return to the activities you enjoy.

We hope that you take a few moments to browse our site as we believe it contains helpful information about the care we provide and how we interact with our patients and their families. Should you have any questions, our surgeons and staff members will be pleased to answer them.

Our Philosophy of Care

At Ithaca Orthopaedic Group, we regard our patients as members of our extended family. Your problems are important to us because they are important to you.

We believe that each patient is entitled to the very best we have to offer, and our personalized service reflects that belief.

Here, patients are treated with kindness and courtesy. We don’t ever want you to feel that your phone calls and requests for information are bothersome, because that's why we are here. It is our hope that the environment you encounter at Ithaca Orthopaedic Group will ease your fear and discomfort, and start you on the road to recovery.

Honest two-way communication is one of our primary concerns. By sharing information with each other, we can help you find solutions and resolve the problems that have brought you to us. We will always treat you with respect, and hope that it will be returned in kind.
