Now more than ever,
there are fewer reasons anyone should ever have to leave the Cape
for the orthopedic care and
treatment you need.
In recent years, Cape Cod Healthcare has devoted significant time, effort and
resources into building an excellent orthopedic program. Our talented orthopedic
surgeons have been trained at some of the finest medical schools in the country,
and all of them are board-certified in their specialties. Equipment and
technology have evolved and techniques have been refined, resulting in
smaller incisions, faster recovery times and less need for pain medication.
For example, both Cape Cod Hospital and Falmouth Hospital now offer computer-assisted navigation systems –
computer-guided technology designed to improve the surgical performance and the
clinical outcomes of total knee replacement and total hip replacement surgery
and other procedures. This
system is the most advanced in joint replacement.
Of course, any successful orthopedic procedure requires excellent aftercare.
At Cape Cod Healthcare, orthopedic patients receive individualized attention,
involving family support systems and a convenient system for post-operative rehabilitation and nursing care.
Our orthpedic surgeons and the skilled professional staff supporting them at
both hospitals are ready and able to meet your needs, whether you
