Orthopaedic Care in Pendleton, NY

A rolled ankle on a Niagara Gorge trail, a shoulder that aches after a long shift downtown, a knee that has slowly gotten worse year after year. When bone, joint, or muscle pain starts getting in the way of your day, you want an experienced orthopaedic team close to home. UBMD Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine provides expert orthopaedic care for Pendleton, NY, with imaging, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation from one team that is focused on getting you back to the things you love.

Life in Pendleton keeps people moving. A town that was mostly farmland a generation ago is filling in with subdivisions along Campbell Boulevard and Transit Road, and the injuries we see reflect both sides of that. There is still equipment and field work on the farms that remain, long commutes and desk-bound days for people working down in Amherst and Buffalo, and a steady stream of young athletes coming through Starpoint. Add a Niagara County winter and shoveling strains, snowmobile and ATV spills, and slips on the ice turn up every year.

Rather than rushing you through a standard protocol, we build a plan around your goals, whether that means getting back out on the Erie Canal towpath, keeping up on the job, or getting a young athlete back on the field. Most of our patients start with the least invasive option that can work, and we only move toward surgery when it is truly the right call.

We are a medical group connected to the University at Buffalo Department of Orthopaedics, which means the latest research and teaching are part of our everyday care. Our team of physicians is fellowship-trained and board-certified, backed by physician assistants, nurse practitioners, physical therapists and athletic trainers, with more than 25 years of experience caring for Western New York. We’re also the official orthopaedic team for the Buffalo Sabres and Buffalo Bandits and the medical partner for more than 30 area high schools, so the same level of care that keeps pro athletes going is available to Pendleton families too.
