Duke Orthopaedics: Treating everyone from world-class athletes to world-class grandparents

That ache in your shoulder, the tear in your knee, the pain in your hip -- they could keep you from doing the things you love.

Duke has one of the top ranked orthopaedics programs in the country. In the last year alone, we performed over 7,000 surgeries, including more than 1,000 knee and hip replacements.

The world never slows down. We’ll make sure you don’t, either.
