What Is Arthroscopic Surgery in Queens—and Why It Matters

— Expert Care for Vascular Conditions & Circulatory Health

Arthroscopic surgery is a modern orthopedic method that uses small tools and a fiber-optic camera (arthroscope) to diagnose and fix joint issues with minimal intrusion. Compared to open surgery, this approach leads to less discomfort, smaller scars, and a faster road to recovery.

At MM Medical, our Queens-based surgeons use arthroscopic surgery to treat:

✔ Shoulder injuries like labral or rotator cuff tears
✔ Knee conditions such as ACL tears, cartilage damage, or meniscus injuries
✔ Hip problems, including impingements and labral tears
✔ Dislodged bone fragments and inflamed joint linings

This outpatient procedure means many of our Queens patients return home the same day—and resume their routines much quicker than with traditional surgery.

Our expert team is ready to provide cutting-edge solutions with compassionate care. Schedule an appointment or call us at: (718) 897-2228
