Orthopaedic Care in Niagara Falls, 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 Niagara Falls, NY, with imaging, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation from one team that is focused on getting you back to the things you love.

Life in Niagara Falls keeps people moving. Hospitality and service workers spend long days on their feet, families stay active on the trails at Whirlpool State Park and along the river, and long lake-effect winters bring icy sidewalks and the occasional slip-and-fall. Those realities show up in the injuries we see, from worn-down knees and sore shoulders to winter wrist fractures and ankle sprains.

Rather than rushing you through a standard protocol, we build a plan around your goals, whether that means walking the gorge trails again, keeping up on the job, or getting a young athlete back in the game. 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 Niagara Falls families too.
