Orthopedic surgeons treat injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Dr. Li performs advanced procedures such as arthroscopic surgery, joint repair, and joint replacement for shoulders, knees, and hips. He also provides non-surgical treatments when possible.
Recovery varies by procedure and individual. Minor surgeries may take a few weeks, while joint replacement recovery can take several months with physical therapy. Dr. Li and his team provide personalized recovery plans to help patients heal safely and regain strength.
Surgery is only recommended when conservative treatments like medication, physical therapy, or injections don’t relieve your symptoms. Dr. Li always explores non-surgical options first and discusses surgical procedures only when they’re the best path to recovery.
If you experience joint pain, swelling, stiffness, reduced range of motion, or pain after an injury, it’s time to see an orthopedist. Ongoing shoulder, knee, or hip discomfort that interferes with daily activities should be evaluated promptly.
