Arthritis & Joints
Some of the most common types of arthritis include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, transient (in reaction to a viral illness), injury-based, and septic (due to infection). Arthritis can affect the shoulder, hand, spine, hip, knee, ankle, or a combination of these areas. In addition to discomfort, this condition can cause swelling, debility, deformity, and stiffness in the affected area. Furthermore, there are joint conditions, such as avascular necrosis, that can cause similar symptoms. When you arrive for your initial consultation, our experienced physicians will perform a physical examination and may request X-rays, blood tests, and other laboratory tests to help determine the type and severity of your concern. At our practice we emphasize non-surgical and minimally invasive therapies foremost, recommending more advanced techniques only in the event conservative methods prove ineffective or are inappropriate.

Recent Success Stories
Dr. Tozzi is the best. I had 2 total knee replacements, one last May and the other in January. No pain, minimal discomfort, and very short recovery time on my way to having a normal life again. THANKS, DR TOZZI! YOU’RE THE BEST!
I had a medial meniscus repair performed by Dr. Petrosini two months ago. I am very happy with results. Dr. Petrosini was very clear on what I could expect from the surgery and recovery. I would recommend without reservations.
A huge thank you to Dr. Glasser for diagnosing and treating an old shoulder injury. With her expertise, I was finally able to exercise and surf again without any pain. Highly recommended!
