Comprehensive Orthopedic Care
While elite athletes trust us with their orthopedic care, the Memorial Hermann | Rockets Orthopedics team is uniquely positioned to treat adults and children with varying levels of physical abilities, providing the innovative and effective orthopedic and sports medicine care that people have come to expect from Memorial Hermann.
Fueling the Future of Orthopedics with Research
We take an evidence-based, interdisciplinary approach to treating patients and optimizing treatment outcomes. Our team of physical therapists relies on published and applied research to inform affiliated orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine physicians about the most effective treatment options to return patients back to their normal routines more quickly. At the same time, the physical therapists and physicians are contributing to orthopedic and sports medicine research by collecting data about patients’ injuries, conditions and effective treatments.
This interdisciplinary approach sets Memorial Hermann | Rockets Orthopedics apart from other philosophies of care. Treatment of musculoskeletal injuries or conditions stems from collaboration between the physical therapists and physicians, who use data about patients’ functionality and performance goals to develop the most effective treatment plans.
Using established clinical studies and data collected from its numerous clinics, we have established advanced interdisciplinary programs that focus on problems with the knee, hip, upper extremities such as the shoulder and elbow, spine and joints.
Lasting Results
More than 50,000 patients, and counting, have experienced the benefits of these advanced interdisciplinary programs over the past decade. Data collected by these programs show Memorial Hermann’s patients recover more quickly and have a reduced risk of re-injury after they complete treatment compared with other orthopedics’ treatment programs.
