Knee
Knee Anatomy 101
The knee is the largest joint in the body, uniting the thigh with the rest of the leg. It is a system of moving parts consisting of cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The knee is also a hinge that provides the human body with the strength to run, squat, jump, and turn.
Common Concerns
However, it is vulnerable to a number of injuries and conditions because of its inability to rotate in every direction. Common knee injuries include: torn ACL, torn meniscus, fractured or dislocated patella (knee cap), ligament injury, and torn tendons.

Orthopedic Trauma
What Is Orthopedic Trauma?
Orthopedic trauma is an orthopedic care subspecialty that deals with a broad range of acute bone, joint, and soft-tissue injuries caused by a traumatic incident. Examples of such incidents include car or motorcycle accidents, falls, natural disasters, sports injuries, and more. It can also be caused by overuse, such as running extreme distances. Traumatic orthopedic injuries require specialized diagnosis and care to ensure optimal injury recovery.
Orthopedic trauma differs from chronic conditions, such as degenerative hip pain or long-term back pain, because it’s caused by a traumatic event. Orthopedic injuries can range from minor stress fractures, broken bones, torn tendons, joint damage, and muscle strains to serious and even life-threatening injuries. Please seek immediate orthopedic care if you are experiencing any of these traumatic injuries. Leaving injuries untreated can lead to more serious, permanent damage in the future.
At Orthopedic Specialists, our team of orthopedic trauma providers have the extensive experience, expertise, and technology required to treat traumatic injuries. When an orthopedic surgeon specializes in emergency trauma, it means he or she has received extensive training in the rapid and accurate diagnosis of acute musculoskeletal injuries. Additionally, orthopedic trauma surgeons will generally have more experience with these types of injuries and are often the best orthopedic doctors on staff. When experience is combined with additional training, it often results in a better outcome for the patient. The orthopedic trauma specialist’s overall goal is to repair the function of the injured body part as quickly and effectively as possible.
Orthopedic Specialists staff of orthopedic physicians includes some of the best orthopedic surgeons in Iowa. Our orthopedic surgeons are extensively trained and experienced in the most effective methods to treat traumatic injuries to the musculoskeletal system. From fast injury diagnosis via medical imaging to emergency orthopedic surgery, the staff at Orthopedic Specialists will work promptly to provide you with the best treatment for your injuries. They will also work with your other physicians to prepare you for beneficial aftercare treatment such as physical therapy and durable medical equipment.
To prevent traumatic injuries, our doctors always recommend that you wear your seatbelt when driving and a helmet when riding a bike, skateboard, etc. When playing sports, wear the appropriate safety gear and remember to properly warm up before participating in physical activity. It is always smart to wear comfortable, flat shoes to prevent falling or slipping. The best injury treatment is always injury prevention!

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injections
What Is Plasma?
Plasma is one of the main components of blood. It also contains small solid components of red cells, white cells, and platelets. The platelets are best known for their importance in clotting blood. However, platelets also contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors which are very important in the healing of injuries.
Platelet-rich plasma is plasma with more platelets than is typically found in blood. The concentration of platelets can be 5 to 10 times greater (or richer). This means that the concentration of growth factors is 5 to 10 times greater, promoting better healing. Laboratory studies have shown that PRP can help increase certain growth factors that are important in the healing process.
PRP Injections
PRP injections have been shown to have beneficial effects for a wide variety of injury recoveries such as Achilles injuries and ACL or MCL tears. It can also help support recovery from tennis elbow, tendonitis, and even arthritis. PRP Injections are a form of regenerative medicine meaning the patient's natural healing system is being utilized to help heal tissue and recover faster.
To develop a PRP preparation, blood must first be drawn from the patient. The platelets are separated from other blood cells and their concentration is increased during a process called centrifugation. The concentration of platelets is then injected directly into the injured or diseased body tissue. This releases the growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells in the injured part of the body.
Side effects are uncommon, but they are possible. Any time a needle is inserted through the skin, an infection can occur. The other more common side effect of PRP injections is an increase in inflammation and pain after the injection for a brief period of time before the benefits may be felt.
Since studies have been for a relatively short duration, insurance companies still consider the procedure experimental. However, there have been a large number of success stories. Many patients who have received positive results from PRP injections felt it was well worth the investment for the relief they gained. As always, individual results will vary and not everyone will have the same level of success or benefit.
Because insurance does not currently cover the cost of PRP injections, our office does require payment prior to receiving the injections. Currently, PRP injections are only available in our Fort Dodge Clinic.
From recovering from a surgery or injury to dealing with a chronic condition to sports medicine purposes, find out if PRP therapy is right for you. As a partner of Iowa Specialty Hospital, we are proud to offer the most innovative health solution and premier providers in the state of Iowa.
Call 515-955-6767 to discuss this option with your provider or to schedule an appointment.
Shoulder
Shoulder Anatomy & Its Functions
The shoulder is comprised of the clavicle (collarbone), scapula (shoulder blade), and humerus (upper arm bone) as well as numerous muscles, ligaments, and tendons. We utilize our shoulders for both mobility and stability, including lifting, pushing, and pulling. The shoulder is a common source of aches and pains, often the result of repetitive motion used in sports, at work, or during daily activities. Orthopedic injuries and conditions associated with shoulder discomfort range from shoulder tendinitis, arthritis, and bursitis to stress fractures, rotator cuff injuries, and instabilities.
Shoulder Procedures at Orthopedic Specialists
At Orthopedic Specialists, our specialty-trained and experienced shoulder orthopedic surgeons are recognized as leaders in the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder injuries and conditions. They provide an extraordinary base of shared knowledge with advanced surgery and treatment methods. They treat patients in Fort Dodge, surrounding areas of Iowa, and throughout the Midwest!

Spine (Neck & Back)
Spine Structure and Function
The spine is one of the most important and intricate systems within the body. It is made up of the lumbar region in the lower back, the thoracic region in the middle back, and the cervical region in the neck.
The neck and back are the places in the body where people most often experience pain and discomfort. A significant number of individuals will experience lumbar region (lower back) pain or cervical region (neck) pain sometime in their life. This pain can be caused by issues with spinal discs, spinal fractures, neck injuries, or pinched nerves. Occasionally, this will require back surgery to provide pain relief.
Personalized Treatment Services
Spine injuries can turn even the simplest activity into a painful ordeal. Iowa Speciality Hospitals & Clinics and Orthopedic Specialists’ orthopedic spine surgeons are committed to addressing your acute spinal issues and chronic spinal issues. We utilize both surgical and nonsurgical treatments.

- Physical therapy and aquatic therapy
- Medication
- Ultrasounds

The majority of spinal injuries and conditions can be successfully addressed with minimally invasive methods. However, in cases where spine surgery is essential for a full recovery, our orthopedic spine surgeons utilize cutting-edge advancements to ensure a rapid return to the quality of life you deserve. Here are some common spinal procedures our neck and spine surgeons perform:
- Artificial Disk Replacement

Total Joint Replacement Surgery
Do You Need a Total Joint Replacement?
Deciding to have a joint replacement (joint arthroplasty) is a big decision, which can help relieve hip joint, shoulder joint pain, and knee joint pain caused by joint damage or arthritis. A joint replacement procedure will enable you to live a fuller, more active life.
All orthopedic care, especially a total joint replacement, should be a cooperative decision between you and your orthopedic surgeon. It is important to give yourself time to prepare for the physical, psychological, and social aspects of joint replacement surgery. Common procedures our joint replacement specialists perform include:
- Hip Replacement Surgery
- Shoulder Replacement Surgery
- Knee Replacement Surgery
Orthopedic surgeons performing a joint arthroplasty use metal and/or plastic parts to reconstruct worn-down, damaged, or arthritic joint surfaces. This has been effective as a treatment for arthritic patients who have had unsuccessful nonsurgical treatments and have a disabling function, limitation of daily living activities, and need relief from arthritis pain.
Outpatient Joint Replacement Surgery
Total joint replacements have come a long way. Previously, patients stayed in the hospital for several days to recover, only to make their way into another physical therapy session for post-surgical care. Our minimally invasive joint repair surgeries offer the benefit of reducing the length of stay in hospitals for our patients. Thanks to medical advancements, research, and technology, the orthopedic surgeons at ISH-Orthopedic Specialists can provide better outcomes and quicker joint replacement recovery times for our patients.
Outpatient total joint replacement procedures are now being performed on select patients at ISH-Orthopedic Specialists. Outpatient surgery patients must meet medical criteria to be considered for this option and also have an appropriate home setting and support to allow discharge the same day. To learn more about this minimally invasive surgery or to see if you qualify, contact us today.
