Orthopedic Treatments to Heal Your Joints
It can be exhilarating to ride your bike up a hill, make that basket, or race your grandkids across the park (and let them win, of course). But a tear, a fracture, or a break can bring these activities to a halt, making simple actions painful and difficult. At AdventHealth Waterman, formerly Florida Hospital Waterman, you’ll find expert orthopedic surgeons and a specialized care team all ready to support you in your quest for greater strength and healing.
As the first and only hospital in Lake County to receive a Joint Commission-certified Gold Seal of Approval for Knee and Hip Replacement, we’re committed to providing the very best in orthopedic treatments. And with services like minimally invasive orthopedic surgery, physical therapy, and an inpatient rehabilitation center, we’ll help you find the flexibility and freedom of movement you need to embrace life fully once again.
We’re here to help you find the right orthopedic expert or a location that’s convenient for you.

Sometimes, all you need to turn that joint injury around is a little physical therapy.

- Connected, Coordinated Care

Private rooms, inpatient rehabilitation, a group therapy room, and all the medical expertise you need to turn your condition around — that’s what you’ll find at AdventHealth Waterman. An Orthopedics Navigator will guide you through the orthopedic treatment process, helping you prepare for surgery, connecting you with therapists, and answering any questions you have along the way. With a range of services in our network, we want to make your care more convenient and empowering.
- Preparing for Surgery
-
If you have a surgery scheduled, you’ll be invited to our free pre-surgery joint replacement class. You’ll learn what to expect before and after surgery, how to maximize your joint health through nutrition, safety, and physical therapy, and how to prepare for your hospital stay. At the end of the class, you’ll have the chance to ask any questions you may have. We know that when you’re well-informed, you’re more confident in your care. Because of our dedication to your whole-person wellness, we’d like to bring you not only physical healing, but lifted spirits.
