Dr. Steven Struhl, M.D. – Mission Statement

My goal is to give our patients the very best quality care, immediate access, and seamless services to quick diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of a wide range of orthopedic disorders – with particular expertise in problems of the shoulders and knees. Every member of my practice is committed to the ideal that each patient is a whole person with an issue to address, not simply a case for surgery.

Recent advances have dramatically changed the way shoulder and knee problems are treated. To some people, the idea of orthopedic surgery conjures up images of large ugly incisions, bulky casts and braces, and long painful periods of rehabilitation. In reality, current treatment techniques have eliminated these unpleasant experiences.

Even complex problems can now be treated with minimally invasive procedures on an outpatient basis, with a very early return to daily tasks as well as athletic endeavors. In my practice, we use the latest techniques and research advances to give our patients the very best care.

We strive to provide personalized and efficient care by providing appointments and scheduling procedures with minimal delay. Our phone system eliminates the annoying electronic voice prompts and allows patients to talk directly to our staff during business hours.
