Minimally Invasive

Minimally Invasive Arthroscopic Surgery

Arthroscopy allows our orthopedic surgeons to visualize, diagnose, and treat joint problems using small incisions and specialized instruments. This minimally invasive technique reduces tissue disruption and often shortens recovery time.

Surgical Solutions

Tendon and Ligament Repair

The knee depends on a network of ligaments—the ACL, MCL, LCL, and PCL—to stay stable through every cut, pivot, and landing. When one tears, instability and pain can quickly sideline you. At Idaho Sports Medicine Institute, our board-certified, fellowship-trained surgeons repair and reconstruct injured ligaments and tendons using precise, often minimally invasive techniques, drawing on graft options such as the patellar tendon, quadricep tendon, hamstring, or allograft when needed. Whether you're managing an isolated sprain or a complex multi-ligament injury, we pair accurate on-site diagnosis with coordinated rehabilitation to restore strength, stability, and confident return to activity.

Recovery Support

Pre and Post-Operative Care

 

Successful outcomes extend beyond the operating room. Our team coordinates comprehensive preoperative and postoperative care to support safe recovery and long-term performance.

Preoperative Care

Prepare for Surgery

Preoperative care prepares patients physically and mentally for surgery. Our team ensures you understand every step of the process, your questions are answered, and your body is positioned for the best possible outcome.

Postoperative Care

Return to Activity

Postoperative rehabilitation focuses on restoring strength, range of motion, and joint stability. We work closely with physical therapy providers to ensure continuity of care throughout the recovery process.

Our Philosophy

A Conservative Approach
to Surgical Care

While some injuries require immediate surgery, others benefit from conservative care first. Many musculoskeletal injuries improve with structured rehabilitation and non-surgical treatment. Our surgeons carefully evaluate each case and prioritize the least invasive solution whenever possible.
