Dancing in the rain, shooting hoops at the park, running a 5K, or just walking your children home from school — it’s the small, daily activities that give life meaning.

At AdventHealth, we’ve assembled a team of orthopedic surgeons, trauma specialists, sports medicine experts, nurses, and athletic trainers to help you find relief and healing. From arthritis to shin splints, you’ll find the treatments for joint pain and injury you need to help make you feel whole.

We’re here to help you find the right physician or a location that’s convenient for you.

Find What’s Holding You Back: Before you can start healing, you need to know what the problem is.
