🏥 Research Spotlight

We’re proud to share that Dr. Troy Watson recently contributed to a published study on improving recovery after ankle fracture surgery using a fibular nail.

PATIENT COMEBACK STORY: Jimmy S. 🙌

"I can now walk miles without any pain or discomfort."

For three years, Jimmy searched for a surgeon willing to help him. After multiple doctors turned him away, he found hope with Dr. Roger Fontes. Dr. Fontes successfully removed a 30-year-old rod from Jimmy's tibia that had been causing debilitating pain—and the surgery was flawless and provided relief.

At Desert Orthopaedic Center, getting our patients back to living their lives is our top priority. Our expert team provides superior care without compromise—because everyone deserves a second chance at the life they love.

🦃🔪 Turkey Carving Time!

Before you dig into that delicious bird, keep these carving tips in mind so the only thing you’re serving up is smiles (and seconds 😉):

• Use a sharp knife—it’s actually safer than a dull one.
• Keep your cutting area dry and steady.
• Always carve away from yourself.
• Let the turkey rest before slicing.

Carve smart, stay safe, and enjoy every bite of your holiday feast!

And as always, if something goes awry, we’re here to help—just give us a call!
