Common Conditions We Treat
KNEE PAIN
Serving patients in the Greater Phoenix, AZ community
One of the most common conditions that we treat for our patients is knee pain. Many people suffer from knee pain, which can be caused by various conditions such as arthritis and sports injuries. Each year, over 10 million people visit a doctor for knee pain, and many are also suffering from other conditions such as inflammation, ligament damage and fractures. If you’re experiencing knee pain, it’s important that you take immediate action to address it.
At Sonoran Pain & Spine, our experienced surgeons are board-certified and are skilled at performing non-surgical treatments as well as complex knee reconstructions and sports-related procedures. We use the latest surgical techniques and are committed to providing the best possible care.
“The entire experience from scheduling an appointment to walking out the door was fantastic. You really get the sense that this is a world class practice. They made me feel welcomed and did not rush through the visit. He, and his PA, answered all my questions and ensured I understood the prognosis and all possible directions of care moving forward. I’m very happy we came across SPS.”
