Arm & Elbow: Finding the Right Elbow Surgeon

Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center has the top specialists in arm and elbow care in the region, which is important because the elbow plays such a critical role in our daily lives. Connecting the humerus, ulna, and radius, the elbow is critical for arm mobility. The bones, muscles, and tendons of the elbow work together to support movement and function. When it hurts, becomes injured, or simply doesn’t feel like it should, you need an arm and elbow team that can bring together doctors and surgeons experienced specifically in elbow care — from sports medicine and upper extremity surgeons to physical therapists, return-to-sport athletic trainers, and highly specialized orthopedic imaging technologists. This team is skilled in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions affecting the elbow, including pain and elbow injury.

Arm & Elbow Specialists Services

One of our guiding principles at Panorama is that conservative care should always be the first approach. With arm and elbow injuries, there are many ways we can treat the pain that are non-operative. Nonsurgical treatments such as bracing, injections, and physical therapy are often recommended to reduce pain and inflammation, promote healing, and restore function before considering surgical intervention.

Advanced Diagnostic Tests

At Panorama Orthopedics & Spine Center, advanced diagnostic tests are at the heart of our approach to treating elbow, wrist, and shoulder conditions. Our commitment to expert care begins with a thorough and accurate diagnosis, using the latest technology to pinpoint the source of your elbow pain, wrist pain, or shoulder discomfort. Our team of board-certified arm and elbow surgeons utilize state-of-the-art imaging tools—including X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans—to assess the health of your elbow joint, and surrounding structures.

For many patients, elbow arthroscopy offers a minimally invasive procedure that allows our doctors to directly visualize the inside of the elbow joint through smaller incisions. This advanced technique is invaluable for diagnosing and treating conditions such as tennis elbow, lateral epicondylitis, and other overuse injuries, while minimizing recovery time and reducing the risk of complications. Our minimally invasive techniques are designed to relieve pain and restore mobility, helping you return to your daily activities as quickly and safely as possible.

Our care team works collaboratively to ensure every patient receives a customized treatment plan. Physical therapists partner with our elbow specialists to design rehabilitation programs that build strength, improve range of motion, and support long-term recovery. For more complex cases, such as severe arthritis or significant elbow injuries, our surgeons may recommend advanced procedures and elbow replacements, always prioritizing minimally invasive options when appropriate.

In addition to diagnostic imaging and surgical procedures, we offer custom splints, braces, and casts to support healing and protect the affected area. Our arm and elbow surgeons, hand surgeons and shoulder surgeons are experienced in treating hand, wrist, shoulder, and elbow conditions, ensuring comprehensive arm care for every patient. By combining cutting-edge diagnostics with personalized, multidisciplinary treatment, we empower you to achieve a full range of motion, relieve pain, and regain confidence in your daily life.
