Specialized Physicians Physical Education And Sports Medicine Honolulu Near Me

4worldlovers:
Straub Bone & Joint Center's rheumatologists treat arthritis and other rheumatic diseases. Rheumatic diseases may cause pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones. Sometimes, arthritis is caused by an autoimmune disorder. This means the body's immune system attacks its own healthy cells and tissues. Our physicians care for patients experiencing these types of arthritic disorders in conditions as gout, arthritis, osteoporosis, lupus, scleroderma and osteoarthritis.


Straub's sports medicine physicians treat injuries and illnesses that affect activity, exercise and performance. Our sports medicine physicians treat patients without surgery, but also refer patients to a surgeon when there is a need for surgical evaluation. Our sports medicine physicians also collaborate closely with physical and occupational therapists to help restore an active person’s function and independence after an illness or injury. Examples of conditions treated here are ACL injuries, dislocations, tendonitis, overuse injuries from sports, torn meniscus and more.


Our highly trained orthopedic surgeons follow the latest surgical and non-surgical protocols to achieve optimal results in their patients. They treat every variety of injury and disease of the bones and joints, from sports injuries to degenerative diseases. Our orthopedic surgeons work closely with a team of experts to ensure the best care of the more common orthopedic conditions such as arthritis, sprains and strains, muscle damage and osteoporosis, as well as specialized areas of treatment including foot and ankle, joint replacement, pediatric, shoulder and elbows, and spine.


Our rehabilitation team is comprised of a skilled staff of physical therapists who treat an array of musculoskeletal injuries and disorders. They develop a customized plan of care according to each patient’s unique situation, making use of the latest advances and procedures in the field. While treating conditions both simple and complex, our therapists’ goal is to help patients regain their physical functioning, whether to prevent surgery after an orthopedic injury, or to help a patient regain strength and range of motion post-surgery. Treatment is aimed at reducing pain, increasing fitness and aiding motion and mobility.
