Care
Michigan Orthopedic Sports Medicine at the Highest Level
Anderson Sports Medicine focuses on three primary treatment areas: knees, shoulders, and elbows. We offer care from physical therapy to surgical reconstruction and everything in-between.
Whether you’re a high school or college athlete with a torn ACL, a middle-aged adult with tennis elbow, or a well-seasoned golfer with a deteriorating range of motion, we’re ready to get you back to the activities you love. What we enjoy most is to see our patients back on the field, on the course, or on the court.
Read on to learn more about the types of injuries we treat and the types of treatments we offer.
Knee Care
Knees are among the most commonly injured joints in sports – especially those sports that involved pivoting or quick start and stop. We treat injuries including:
- Partial & Complete Tears
- Combined or Multiligament Tears
- Childhood or Adolescent Injuries
- Meniscus Injuries

- Patella Injuries/Disorders
- Much More
Shoulder Care
The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body. Also, the strength of the muscles surrounding the shoulder is very important in most recreational activities. We treat injuries including:
- Rotaror Cuff Tears & Conditions
- Proximal Biceps Injuries
- Shoulder Instability
- AC Joint Injuries
- Shoulder Arthritis
- Much More
Elbow Care
The elbow can be very susceptible to overuse injuries. We see a variety of elbow issues ranging from tendinitis to major ligament tears to cartilage damage. We treat injuries including:
- Ligament Injuries
- Cartilage Injuries
- Tennis Elbow
- Golfer’s Elbow
- Distal Biceps Tears
- Ulnar Nerve Conditions
- Much More
Nano Arthroscopy
This is a needle sized scope which can be used to perform ultra-minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery. In the past this technology was used for diagnostic purposes, but now we believe this will revolutionize the surgical treatment of many orthopaedic injuries and conditions:
- Minimally Invasive: Smaller incisions mean less pain, scarring, and a quicker recovery time.
- Reduced Trauma: Less tissue damage leads to a reduced risk of complications.
- Faster Recovery: Get back to your normal activities sooner.
- Improved Visualization: High-resolution images provide accurate diagnosis and treatment.
- Less Anesthesia: Often requires less anesthesia, reducing the risk of side effects.
- Reduced Pain: Less postoperative pain and reduced need for pain medication.
- Enhanced Patient Experience: A more comfortable and less invasive procedure.
