Good morning southeast Texas,

Recently I have received several requests to open my clinic all day Monday and Wednesday morning. Currently I see patients all day Tuesday, Wednesday afternoon, all day Thursday and Friday morning.

Unfortunately, Monday and Wednesday morning are the times when I am in surgery taking care of my patients. I apologize for any inconvenience that may cause you.

Hope you have a blessed day and Happy Halloween.

A new surgeon at Christus St. Elizabeth Hospital in Beaumont is the first of its kind in the local health care community. It goes by the name of Mako, Stryker’s robotic arm-assisted partial and total knee replacement system.

Total Hip Replacement is not only for older people. It is also recommended for young active people with hip arthritis. It is a great way to help them get back to more active life.

UPDATE: Tuesday, March 5: Christie has had the procedure and tells us she's doing well, and is on the road to recovery. She appreciates all who have reached out!

Performing some home remedies may help avoid Patellofemoral Pain.

Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a broad term used to describe pain in the front of the knee and around the patella, or kneecap. It is sometimes called "runner's knee" or "jumper's knee" because it is common in people who participate in sports.
