Arthritis
At Greater Pittsburgh Orthopaedic Associates in Pittsburgh, PA, we often see clients who can no longer brush their teeth, dress, or sleep well at night due to a rotator cuff tear, severe fracture, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis or other shoulder orthopaedic injury. Sometimes shoulder replacement is necessary and can make all the difference to your quality of life
Plantar Fasciitis
Primary Care
A referral form from your Primary Care Physician (PCP) is required for Gateway Health Plan and some Aetna US Healthcare insurance plans. You will also need to provide your PCP’s name and office phone number.
Emergency Care
Keep in mind that much of Orthopaedic Surgery is emergency care at hospitals that can’t be scheduled and may affect your appointment. We hope you will be understanding of any schedule changes or delays.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Dr. DiTano treats pathology in the entire upper extremity. He is involved with treating common hand conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome and hand arthritis with endoscopic carpal tunnel release and joint replacements. Dr. DiTano stated, “These techniques can eliminate pain and restore normal function to the hand.” He continues to specialize in trauma reconstruction and nerve compression injuries in the upper extremity.

Orthopedics
Dr. Kubik is a fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and a diplomat of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery. He is a member of the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine as well as the Arthroscopy Association of North America. Locally, he is a member of the Pennsylvania Medical Society, Allegheny County Medical Society and the Pennsylvania Orthopaedic Society. Dr. Kubik’s main specialties in orthopedics are in the treatment of the shoulder and knee. Regarding the shoulder, he specializes in the treatment of rotator cuff and labral tears as well as shoulder instability and arthritis. Dr. Kubik performs a high volume of shoulder replacements including reverse shoulder replacement. In the knee, he specializes in the care of ACL and meniscal tears as well as arthritis. He performs a high number of knee replacements including the Oxinium ceramic knee which is indicated for younger, more active patients. He also utilizes the Visionaire patient-matched computer knee replacement technique which allows for improved implant sizing and positioning resulting in a less invasive, more personalized patient experience.
Arthroscopy
Because it is less invasive than traditional open surgery, there is less trauma to surrounding tissue. There is also significantly less scarring. Many people are able to undergo arthroscopic elbow surgery with a localized anesthetic, which greatly reduces risks associated with surgery. Additionally, there is often less stiffness and swelling after an elbow arthroscopy, which results in an increased range of motion and shorter recovery time.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Minimally-invasive surgery is a type of surgery that uses small incisions and special techniques to minimize damage to the surrounding tissues. This type of surgery can offer many benefits, including...

Our foot and ankle department is staffed by board-certified and fellowship-trained foot & ankle orthopedic surgeons with extensive experience in treating foot and ankle conditions.
Joint Replacement
Restoration of cartilage is recommended when there is damage to the tissue that causes chronic or severe pain or swelling. It is often a good choice if you have damage that is limited to one or two joints. Some people choose restoration as an alternative to joint replacement surgery.
Arthritis Surgery

Hand Surgery
Any condition that has a significant impact on your hands can be extremely disabling. This is especially true if you consider all the ways in which hands are such a vital part of your daily life. Because of the mechanics and complex anatomy of the hand, and the fact that their motor function is contingent on a complete and total recovery, a well-designed treatment plan is a must when opting for hand surgery.

Tennis Elbow
People seek out elbow surgery for a variety of reasons. Some of the most common are age- or trauma-related degeneration within the joint. Injuries, whether it is a fracture or tear from acute trauma or a repetitive use injury like tennis elbow, are also often repaired through surgical intervention.

Achilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis: This condition is characterized by inflammation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the heel bone to the calf muscle. Achilles tendonitis can be caused by overuse, improper stretching, or a change in footwear.
