Prevent injuries and optimize your health with precision body composition data.

A DEXA scan is the gold standard for measuring body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, and bone mineral density. Unlike BMI, which only compares height and weight, DEXA shows what your body is actually made of—fat, muscle, and bone.

Why DEXA is better than BMI:
➟ BMI cannot distinguish fat from muscle, often misclassifying athletes and active individuals
➟ BMI provides no insight into bone health or muscle balance
➟ DEXA delivers precise, clinically validated measurements used in medical and sports performance settings

A DEXA body composition scan measures:
➟ Bone density & bone mineral content
➟ Total and regional body fat
➟ Lean muscle mass & side-to-side imbalances
➟ Actionable data for injury prevention and long-term health

Whether your goal is injury prevention, athletic performance, weight management, or bone health, DEXA provides the clarity BMI cannot.

🚀 A new step forward in cartilage repair 🦵

Smaller incisions. Less disruption. Faster recovery.

Last week, Dr. David Goodwin was among the first surgeons to perform a minimally invasive procedure called 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰 𝗠𝗔𝗖𝗜 —a technique designed to restore damaged cartilage while being gentler on the joint.
This approach means less surgical trauma and supports a smoother, more efficient recovery, helping patients get back to moving comfortably and doing what they love sooner.

As orthopedic care continues to advance, our focus remains the same: helping patients return to movement, strength, and quality of life.

Learn how arthroscopic MACI restores damaged cartilage using a minimally invasive approach that preserves joints, reduces surgical trauma, and supports recovery.
