Rovner, M.D., Progressive Spine & Orthopaedics provides focused, high-level orthopaedic care centered on accurate diagnosis and thoughtful treatment planning.

What Is Orthopaedics?

Orthopaedics is the medical specialty devoted to diagnosing and treating conditions of the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and the spine. These structures work together to support movement, stability, and physical function.

Orthopaedic treatment in New Jersey may include non-surgical management such as guided rehabilitation and physical therapy, or surgical intervention when structural correction, stabilization, or nerve decompression is required to restore function and relieve pain.

Benefits of Orthopaedic Care

Orthopaedic care is designed to address the structural causes of pain while improving long-term mobility and function.

Targeted pain relief: Treating mechanical or structural sources of pain rather than symptoms alone.
Improved stability and motion: Supporting safer, more confident movement.
Individualized care planning: Treatment decisions based on anatomy, activity level, and overall health.
Reduced risk of progression: Addressing conditions before they worsen or cause secondary issues.
Sustainable functional improvement: Focusing on durable outcomes, not temporary relief.

Am I a Good Candidate for Orthopaedic Care?

You may benefit from orthopaedic evaluation if pain, stiffness, or limited mobility persists despite rest or conservative care. Orthopaedic treatment in New Jersey is commonly appropriate for degenerative conditions, injuries, structural abnormalities, or chronic musculoskeletal pain that affects daily activities or quality of life.

Why Choose Progressive Spine & Orthopaedics for Orthopaedic Care?

Progressive Spine & Orthopaedics is led by Dr. Rovner, a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon with advanced expertise in spine and complex musculoskeletal conditions. Patients benefit from precise diagnosis, access to minimally invasive and robotic surgical technology, and a level of care that is never delegated.

How Much Does Orthopaedic Care Cost?

The cost of orthopaedic care depends on several factors, including diagnosis, treatment complexity, imaging requirements, and whether surgery is recommended. Insurance coverage and procedural setting may also influence overall cost. These considerations are reviewed in detail during your consultation.

What to Expect During Orthopaedic Treatment

Orthopaedic treatment begins with careful planning and a conservative-first philosophy. When surgery is indicated, procedures are performed using advanced imaging and, when appropriate, minimally invasive or robotic-assisted techniques to support precision and efficient recovery. Patients receive clear guidance at every stage of care, from preparation through rehabilitation.

Orthopaedic Recovery and Results

Recovery timelines vary based on the condition treated and the type of intervention performed. Many patients experience progressive pain relief and functional improvement as healing advances, particularly when rehabilitation recommendations are followed. The focus remains on restoring stability, strength, and mobility to support long-term results.

FAQs

What types of musculoskeletal conditions are treated in orthopaedic care?

Orthopaedic care addresses conditions involving bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and the spine, including injuries, degeneration, and structural abnormalities.

Is surgery the first-line treatment for orthopaedic conditions?

No. Non-surgical options are considered first whenever appropriate. Surgery is recommended only when conservative care is unlikely to provide sufficient relief.

Do I need imaging before my appointment?

Existing imaging is often helpful but not always required. If additional studies are needed, they can be arranged after evaluation.

How is a treatment plan determined?

Treatment plans are based on clinical evaluation, imaging findings, overall health, and functional goals.

What role does physical therapy play in orthopaedic care?

Physical therapy is commonly used to support recovery, improve strength, and restore mobility before or after treatment.

How long does recovery take after orthopaedic surgery?

Recovery varies by procedure and individual factors. Expected timelines are discussed during consultation.

Can orthopaedic care help long-standing pain?

Yes. Identifying and addressing the structural source of chronic pain can significantly improve long-term comfort and function.
