Orthopaedic Trauma 

Exceptional Intervention
When the worst happens, Geisinger’s Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeons Stand Ready

Geisinger’s orthopaedic trauma specialists provide highly advanced, musculoskeletal surgical care for patients suffering from severe trauma as a result of motor vehicle crashes, falls, and other serious incidents. The surgeons combine compassion and wide-ranging expertise – treating patients at the most fragile point in their lives.

Directed by a fellowship-trained orthopaedic trauma surgeon, our orthopaedic surgical specialists are available 24/7. Fellowship-training means that the surgeon has completed additional subspecialty training to gain the most in-depth knowledge of surgical interventions.

Trauma and acute surgical interventions include

• Hip and pelvic fractures
• Multiple and complex fractures and related complications
• Spine and neck surgery
• Broken bone preservation

Our specialists command the latest in orthopaedic trauma techniques, from digital imaging to bone graft procedures to rebuilding complex fractures through fusion “cages.”

What’s more, Geisinger Medical Center is a Level I Regional Resource Trauma Center, and Geisinger Wyoming Valley is a Level II Regional Resource Trauma Center. The orthopaedic trauma surgeons are an integral part of the team, and patients benefit from the collaborative care of nearly every medical specialty, our LifeFlight® aeromedical program and other emergency services.

In that critical hour of need, you can depend on Geisinger’s orthopaedic trauma surgeons.
