Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Clinic on Rodney Parham

New Location, Same World-Class Care

UAMS Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine now offers a brand-new, convenient location at the Premier Medical Plaza on North Rodney Parham! We are bringing the same world-class care and leading-edge medicine you trust closer to you.

Aches, pains, and joint discomfort don’t have to be a “normal” part of aging or something you simply live with after an injury. When pain keeps you from doing the things you love — whether that’s competing on the field, playing with your grandchildren, or enjoying an active lifestyle — it’s time to see one of our orthopaedic experts.

Expert Care for Every Level of Need

As part of the state’s only academic medical center, our clinic serves patients with common orthopaedic conditions as well as those with highly complex issues too difficult to be treated anywhere else. Our experts include nationally renowned, fellowship-trained doctors who are sought out by patients from across Arkansas and around the country.

When surgery is necessary, our orthopaedic surgeons provide the latest minimally invasive techniques using state-of-the-art equipment and technology, including advanced robot-assisted procedures. This means greater precision, less pain, and a faster return to the things you love.
