UAMS Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine clinics offer personalized, complete care for each and every patient.

Specialty Orthopaedic Care

When you’re injured, you need the best team around you. From your very first appointment with UAMS Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, you are cared for with the expertise of the state’s largest fellowship-trained orthopaedic team. Visit one of our two conveniently-located clinics in Northwest Arkansas and get orthopaedic care, sports medicine expertise and support from our outpatient therapy centers that make your recovery the priority.

Care and Expertise from the State’s Largest Fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Team

Surgical and Non-surgical Treatment

We aim to make surgery the final option, not the first option. Within the last few years, our team has been able to treat over 80% of new patients without surgery. But when orthopaedic surgery is the best choice for you, the vast majority of our surgical procedures are performed with minimally invasive arthroscopy, using small cameras and incisions less than five millimeters in size.

Recovery Supported by the Experts

Your recovery is supported by sports-certified physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists to address your core rehabilitation needs. Since they are part of the UAMS Health team, they are able to get a full picture of your history and create a personalized plan just for you.

Care for Razorback Student-Athletes

As official partners with Razorback Athletics, we provide daily medical care to all Razorback sports programs and care for over 450 student-athletes. This includes first-class hospital and surgical services.

Care Personalized to Your Injury or Condition
