Where our orthopaedic surgeries are performed can vary from patient to patient.

Many patients are good candidates for outpatient procedures at our surgery center. However, patients with certain health conditions may be better suited for surgery at the hospital, where they can be admitted for additional care if needed.

Cortisone injections are a temporary, yet effective, treatment for knee arthritis. We do these in the office every day. It is a quick and relatively painless procedure with no down-time or restrictions afterwards. Schedule an appointment with me to see if this is something that can help your knee pain!

A cortisone injection is an injection of a steroid medication, in combination with a local anesthetic, into an inflamed joint, tendon, bursa, or other area of the body.

Steroids are potent anti-inflammatories that are most effective when injected at the site of the problem. When taken orally, they have to pass through the entire body before reaching the site of inflammation.

Get in touch today if you're experiencing inflammation and pain from conditions like osteoarthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, or other musculoskeletal issues. We're here to help!

🎵 Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree…With My Brand New Pair of Knees 🎵

This shirt is Amazing!

This is a wonderful patient of mine who underwent knee replacement on both knees over the past year. She recently came back for her 3 month follow up on her left knee and is doing great! She showed me this shirt she made, just in time for the holidays.

Very rewarding to have grateful patients like this one!

Hope everyone has a happy and relaxing holiday season filled with family, friends and fun. 🎄

Spent last weekend in Tampa with surgeons all over the country who, like myself, perform Kinematic Alignment Knee Replacement surgery. I enjoyed lectures by innovative surgeons and spent valuable time in the lab, focusing on perfecting the technique and learning new tips and tricks. Caliper-verified Kinematic Alignment is a truly personalized knee replacement and the data is overwhelming on its benefits. Thank you for a great course!

Six weeks ago I did the first total knee replacement in Kentucky using Medacta NextAR which is a CT-based “augmented reality” technology. This allows me to place the knee replacement in a position that matches the way their knee functioned prior to developing arthritis.
I’m excited to bring this technology to my practice and my patients at Ellis & Badenhausen Orthopaedics, PSC

TODAY co-host Al Roker returned to the air this week after taking three weeks off to recover from total knee replacement surgery. According to Roker, it was actually “a replacement of a replacement” – better known as a “revision.” Learn how revision surgery is different than primary total knee replacement at : https://bit.ly/43a4NTU
