The Cartilage Restoration Center is devoted to the evaluation and treatment of patients with cartilage damage, which can range from isolated damage to cartilage to advanced arthritis. Articular cartilage lines joints including knee, hips, shoulders, and ankles. Unfortunately, articular cartilage has poor capability to repair itself. As a result, pain occurs leading to decrease of function and ultimately arthritis.

 

The Cartilage Restoration Center is comprised of surgeons who are highly skilled in cartilage surgery with expertise in:

• -    Imaging

• -    Treatment
