Duke Orthopaedics of Raleigh

Make an appointment at our Raleigh orthopaedic clinic if you or your child experiences an injury or chronic pain in the ankles, feet, knees, hips, back, neck, shoulders, elbows, or hands. We specialize in diagnosing and treating sprains, strains, fractures, and tendon and ligament tears. We also evaluate and treat chronic joint pain that limits your range of motion or makes it difficult to perform routine activities.

Our physician assistants and nurse practitioners are often the first medical professionals you will see. They are specially trained in joint and bone pain and injuries. They perform exams, refer you for imaging scans (x-rays are performed right in our office, and other imaging tests are available in the same building), and explain your results.

Nonsurgical Treatments Offered

As part of your treatment plan, we may recommend a range of nonsurgical orthopaedic treatments, such as bracing and casting, fluoroscopy-guided joint injections, and more. If physical therapy is recommended, we will refer you to a PT clinic nearby.

Orthopaedic Surgeons in Raleigh

Surgery may be needed if your injury is serious and nonsurgical options are not effective. It may also be recommended if you experience chronic pain that can be corrected by joint replacement surgery. Hip preservation surgery may be an option if you have a painful hip condition such as hip dysplasia, hip impingement, or avascular necrosis. We also offer spine surgery, foot and ankle surgery, and fracture care.

To determine if surgery is needed, you will be evaluated by an orthopaedic surgeon who specializes in your type of joint injury. They will see you before and after your surgery at this clinic. Operations are performed at Duke Raleigh Hospital or Duke Ambulatory Surgery Center Arringdon.
