Arthritis
A set of x-rays is usually ordered to evaluate the bones around the shoulder. The bone above the rotator cuff, called the acromion, can be hooked, or have a bone spur, which leads to pinching and irritation of the rotator cuff. The x-rays are also used to evaluate for arthritis of the shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint), and acromio-clavicular joint (AC joint). A MRI Arthrogram may be ordered if a rotator cuff tear is suspected, or if the patient is not improving with conservative treatment.

Emergency Care
Specialized care at Barnes-Jewish West County Hospital includes Siteman Cancer Center, emergency care, heart and vascular, imaging and sleep medicine.
Electrocardiogram
Our staff will help to set up the surgery through your insurance company and will instruct you on any paperwork that may be necessary. If you are over the age of 50, or have significant health conditions you may require an EKG and chest x-ray. You may also need to see your internist or family doctor to obtain a Letter of Medical Clearance. The day before the surgery, a member of the hospital or surgery center staff will contact you about what time to arrive for surgery. You may not eat or drink anything after midnight before your surgery.

Orthopedics
Arthroscopy
The arthroscope is a fiber optic instrument (narrower than a pen) which is put into the knee joint through two small incisions. A camera is attached to the arthroscope and the image is viewed on a TV monitor. The arthroscope allows me to fully evaluate the entire knee joint, including the knee (patella), the cartilage surfaces, the meniscus, the ligaments (ACL & PCL), and the joint lining. Small instruments ranging from 3-5 millimeters in size are inserted through the incisions so that I can feel the joint structures for any damage, diagnose the injury, and then repair, reconstruct, or remove the damaged tissue. Before the development of arthroscopy, large incisions had to be made over the knee joint to treat or diagnose injuries. Today's arthroscopic techniques allow more complete evaluations of the knee joint while accelerating the rehabilitation process.
Ankle Surgery
Our services include arthroscopic surgery, spine surgery, hand surgery and foot and ankle surgery. We have extensive experience in hip, knee and shoulder reconstructive and replacement surgery.

Arthroscopy
Ligaments in the knee can be injured at the same time as the meniscus, depending on how your knee was injured. In addition, there can be an injury to the joint surface (articular cartilage) at the time of injury. If surgery is required, damage to the joint surface will be evaluated and treated at the time of your arthroscopy.
Hip Replacement
A hip replacement uses the combination of metal gliding on plastic, and cement to attach the artificial components to the bone. The arthritic head of the femur is removed and replaced with a metal ball which is attached to a metal stem. The stem is cemented into the hollow marrow space of the femur. The worn out hip socket is lined with a plastic cup, which is also cemented in place.
Knee Replacement
A knee replacement involves removing a thin layer of bone from the damaged surface of the femur (thigh bone), using special instruments which remove the correct thickness of bone. The removed bone is then replaced by a thin layer of metal, approximately the same thickness as the bone which was removed.
Knee Arthroscopy
Knee arthroscopy can be performed with general anesthesia (going to sleep), or regional anesthesia (spinal or epidural block). The type of anesthesia will depend on your choice. The anesthesiologist will discuss your options the morning of surgery.
Reconstructive Surgery
