Big city orthopedic care without leaving town.

Whether you need care for a torn ligament, fractured bone, foot condition or sports injury or your doctor has recommended a total hip or knee replacement, the quality care and rehabilitative services you need are all available right here in your own community.

From the skilled physicians, surgeons and support staffs practicing in our hometown orthopedics clinics to the specialized rehabilitation team at CHI Mercy’s New Strides Joint Center, the care you need to complete get you back on your feet is just moments away.

“Hospitals in smaller communities often have to deal with the misperception among local residents that you have to leave town for the big city to get the best quality medical care,” says Kelly Morgan, President/CEO of CHI Mercy Health. “That’s simply not the case in Douglas County.”

Morgan says the quality of life in the Umpqua make Roseburg and Douglas County an attractive destination for highly skilled physicians and surgeons looking for a family friendly community in which to settle down.

That has helped contribute to the growth of a highly educated, trained and experienced medical staff which includes several orthopedic specialists who could be practicing in virtually any other community large or small.

Local orthopedic surgeons are all board certified and trained specialists in the treatment of bone, joint, ligament and tendon injuries. They can provide medical and/or surgical care for the spectrum of orthopedic-related conditions, such as:

  • Total joint reconstruction
  • Fractures
  • Sports medicine injuries
  • Foot and ankle procedures
  • Ligament tears
  • Hand surgery

Patients requiring joint replacement procedures benefit from the after-care of New Strides, one of the region’s most experienced and successful joint replacement teams.

It all adds up to zero reasons why local patients needing orthopedic care should be considering leaving town for it.

If you are considering joint replacement, ask your healthcare provider about New Strides Joint Center:
