Why Do You Need A SPECIALIST?

“My first choice of surgeons is one who thinks surgery is the last choice.”

I’ve performed thousands of successful surgeries and am one of the first in the area to perform Anterior Approach hip replacement surgery, which allows entry from the front of the hip for a faster and easier recovery. But 9 out of 10 times I’m able to help people using a non-surgical approach. Because even as a surgeon, I’m not about the “pitch” - I’m about the home run.

DON’T BE KNEE DEEP IN PAIN

If you are suffering from osteoarthritis in your knee, you no longer need to undergo traditional knee surgery. That was the message Dr. Jon Radnothy conveyed to a group of curious onlookers at The Villages Center for Health. Radnothy, an orthopedic surgeon in Tavares, talked about a new procedure called MAKOplasty partial knee resurfacing. With assistance from a robotic arm, Dr. Radnothy can spare healthy bone and tissue, thus allowing patients to enjoy a quicker recovery time and return to an active lifestyle.
