Choose North Kansas City Hospital for complete care of all your bones, joints, muscles and nerves. Whether you need treatment for a sports injury or a chronic condition, you’ll find the expertise you need to enjoy lasting pain relief.

  • Bulging disc
  • Cervical radiculopathy (pinched neck nerve)
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Herniated disc
  • Scoliosis, kyphosis and lordosis
  • Spinal stenosis
  • Spondylolisthesis
  • Spondylosis

  • Flat feet
  • Heel spur
  • Lisfranc injury
  • Metatarsalgia
  • Morton’s neuroma
  • Peroneal tendonitis

Repetitive motions in your hands or wrists — especially for work or sports — can lead to injuries and chronic pain. Ask for a referral to an orthopedic surgeon, occupational therapist or sports medicine specialist, if you experience:

  • Colles fracture
  • De Quervain tenosynovitis
  • Mallet finger

  • Hip labrum tear
  • Hip tendonitis

Your knees let you bend and straighten your legs to walk, run and sit. With healthy knees, you can meet life’s physical demands with ease. With a knee injury, you may find it harder to get around. An orthopedic knee surgeon can help with:

Your shoulder is your most flexible joint. Its wide range of motion lets you move your arms in many directions, but also makes the joint prone to damage. Talk to an orthopedic shoulder surgeon if you experience a shoulder injury, such as:

  • Frozen shoulder
  • Rotator cuff tear or another rotator cuff injury
  • Rotator cufftendonitis
  • Shoulder labrum tear
