Conservative approach. I favor the least invasive treatment that will relieve or resolve each patient’s problem, and make extensive use of physical therapy, anti-inflammatory mediations, bracing, activity modification, ultrasound-guided injection therapies, and even referral to alternative providers when appropriate (acupuncture, chiropractic, etc.).
Surgical expertise. I truly enjoy operative orthopedics, and keep my manual and mental skills constantly honed and updated. I limit my surgical procedures to those that I can do as well or better than any other surgeon – if I do not honestly believe this to be the case I will refer a patient elsewhere. When surgery becomes necessary I am prepared to offer the latest and most expertly performed procedures.
Our office is modern and handicapped accessible. Our experienced, professional and friendly staff is committed to making your experience here as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
Dr. Weise sees all patients personally at every visit. He takes time to explain conditions, diagnosis, and treatment options in understandable, everyday language. He encourages patients to take an active role in their health-care decisions, and strives to respect their wishes regarding treatment.
