Knee surgery may be a treatment option for patients whose pain does not improve with conservative therapies, such as rest, medications, physical therapy, and joint injections. If you live in St. Petersburg, Florida, and are ready to find an effective solution to your knee pain, turn to Tampa Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Group – a division of Florida Medical Clinic and one of the longest-running practices in the region. We are led by Dr. Daniel Murphy, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with decades of experience helping patients bounce back from debilitating knee conditions.
Dr. Murphy performs several types of knee surgery for patients from St. Petersburg, FL, and throughout the Tampa Bay area. For example, some of our surgical treatment options include:
- Knee arthroscopy to treat relatively minor joint issues with just a few small incisions
- ACL reconstruction surgery to replace a torn or otherwise damaged anterior cruciate ligament
- Meniscus surgery to repair a torn meniscus
- Knee replacement surgery to remove damaged components of the knee and replace them with artificial implants
We understand that undergoing any type of knee surgery can be overwhelming. As our patient, you can be assured that Dr. Murphy will carefully review your condition, detail your treatment options, and help you make an informed and confident decision about your joint health. You may even be a candidate for non-surgical treatments, such as platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy and viscosupplementation.
