At American Orthopedics S.C., our fellowship-trained physicians combine advanced surgical techniques with compassionate, patient-first care — from minimally invasive spine surgery to precise, image-guided pain interventions.
American Orthopedics S.C. is a physician-led orthopedic practice specializing in disorders of the spine, joints, and musculoskeletal system. We believe exceptional outcomes come from pairing surgical expertise with conservative, evidence-based care — exhausting non-operative options first and operating only when it's truly the right answer for you.
Surgery is one tool among many. We build stepwise plans that start with the least invasive effective option.
Precise diagnosis using modern imaging and diagnostic injections, so treatment targets the true pain generator.
The physician who evaluates you manages your care from first visit through full recovery.
From advanced surgical procedures to targeted, image-guided pain management — every option, under one roof.
Surgical relief for herniated discs compressing spinal nerves. Our minimally invasive and microdiscectomy techniques remove damaged disc material through small incisions — relieving leg and arm pain while preserving healthy tissue, often on an outpatient basis.
Learn MoreTargeted relief for arthritis-related neck and back pain. Using fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance, we deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the facet joints — both confirming the pain source and providing lasting relief so you can return to activity and therapy.
Learn MoreLong-lasting pain relief without surgery. RFA uses controlled thermal energy to quiet the small nerves that transmit facet joint pain — typically providing 6 to 24 months of relief after a successful diagnostic block, with a same-day, needle-only procedure.
Learn MoreEvery spine and joint condition is different. Our physicians begin with a thorough evaluation, advanced imaging when needed, and an honest conversation about all of your options — surgical and non-surgical alike.
Board-certified, fellowship-trained specialists committed to precise diagnosis, honest guidance, and exceptional outcomes.

"After two years of sciatica, my discectomy gave me my life back. I was walking comfortably within days. The whole team explained everything at every step."
"The radiofrequency ablation was quick, and the relief has lasted over a year. I only wish I'd come in sooner instead of living on pain medication."
"They never rushed me toward surgery. We tried injections first, and that turned out to be all I needed. That honesty is why I recommend them to everyone."
