Orthopedics

Performing more than 4,400 joint replacements each year, Atlantic Orthopedic Institute is an industry leader in minimal incision surgery and gender-specific knee technology. Our board-certified surgeons are aided by cutting-edge diagnostics and robotic equipment that result in faster recoveries, greater range of motion and smaller scars.

For children with musculoskeletal impairments, our orthopedic specialists collaborate with pediatricians from Atlantic Health System Children's Health and those on staff at Goryeb Children’s Hospital in all aspects of orthopedic care. This includes state-of-the-art diagnostics, surgical treatment and assistive technology, such as custom bracing and walkers.

Atlantic Health System has one of the few programs in the region offering limb-sparing surgery to treat adults and children with bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Our surgical team is highly-trained in removing both cancerous and benign tumors, while preserving the surrounding anatomy, so patients can avoid amputation.

One of only four hospitals in New Jersey designated a Level 1 Regional Trauma Center by the American College of Surgeons, Morristown Medical Center is equipped to treat the most serious orthopedic injuries. This includes isolated fractures, non-unions or fractures that won’t heal, and mal-unions or fractures that have healed in a poor position. In addition, Atlantic Sports Health, part of the orthopedic service line, has highly-trained physicians who are experts at diagnosing and treating injuries sustained during athletic competition.
