Thrive has an unwavering commitment to empowering and supporting patients through their diagnosis, treatment, and recovery process. We are well versed in cutting-edge orthopedic procedures including knee arthroscopy, foot arthroscopy, ankle arthroscopy, and shoulder arthroscopy.
We always encourage our patients to consider conservative treatment first before considering surgery. Our practice provides treatment alternative that reduces the chance of requiring surgery, many of which may be covered by insurance. Some examples of conservative measures may include physical therapy, chiropractic care, orthotics, or injections. However, regardless of the conservative measures taken, at times no amount of physical therapy or chiropractic care will resolve your underlying condition and surgery may be required. We promise to keep you well-informed at every step of your recovery process to make your experience as painless and enjoyable as possible.
