Sometimes the most severe traumatic joint injuries can progress to post traumatic arthritis. Furthermore, destructive, arthritic disease such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can be quite debilitating to entire limbs.
Today, however, prognoses are changing for many patients. Dr. Wilkerson is an expert in joint restoration procedures including joint fluid therapy, cartilage transplantation, and prosthetic replacement surgery. After assessment of the affected joint, our team of physician and therapists work with the patient to develop a long-term treatment plan designed to maximize future joint function.
