Delivering Personalized Patient Care Each Step of the Way
The Westchester Orthopaedic Institute is a collaborative treatment organization developed by White Plains Hospital (WPH) and a highly-regarded group of Westchester-based orthopedic surgeons. It provides a full range of orthopedic surgical and non-surgical services to relieve pain and restore physical function. These include highly-specialized and advanced methods of joint replacement surgery, corrective spinal surgery, and the repair of athletic injuries. Every year, doctors at the Institute perform more hip and knee replacement procedures using minimally-invasive techniques at White Plains Hospital than at any other hospital in Westchester County.
Beginning with pre-operative education, continuing through surgery, and including post-operative physical therapy, the orthopedic surgeons and other team members of the Westchester Orthopaedic Institute provide the complete range of superior orthopedic care.
