Orthopedic surgeons or Orthopedic MDs are physicians who generally have five to seven years of advanced postgraduate training and may serve a fellowship for training in any of several sub-specialty areas, such as sports medicine, traumatology, reconstructive surgery, hand surgery, foot & ankle surgery, spine surgery, rheumatological surgery, pediatric orthopedics, or geriatric orthopedics.
Orthopedic surgeons treat patients using surgical and non-surgical methods to correct problems of the skeletal system and associated muscles, joints, and ligaments.
