Innovative Treatments
Watauga Orthopaedics can serve all your orthopedic needs and can expertly treat patients with sports injuries, work-related injuries, arthritis, and traumatic injuries affecting any part of the musculoskeletal system. We use innovative, minimally invasive treatments, which allow patients to have an easier and faster recovery. Our orthopedic surgeons are highly experienced in minimally invasive joint replacement, arthroscopy, and reconstructive surgery.
Cost-Effective, Specialized Care for Injured Workers
We like to highlight our compassionate and skilled response to the unique needs of patients with work-related injuries. We are a trusted name in northeast Tennessee and southwest Virginia among workers, and help them get back to work as quickly as possible. Our dedicated liaison keeps everyone involved updated on your status so you can focus on your healing and recovery. Our treatment programs for work-related injuries are comprehensive yet affordable, advantageous for both the employee and employer.
An Excellent Sports Medicine Program
Our orthopedic surgeons regularly help professional and amateur athletes return to their sport sooner. Our healthcare providers serve as team physicians for high school and college teams and even Olympic teams. We have over 70 years of experience treating athletes, providing a quick diagnosis, and getting them started on treatment immediately. We also treat weekend warriors. Being pain-free and returning to a pre-injury level of activity are two of our sports medicine treatment goals.
Comprehensive Services Available On-Site
Patient convenience is important to us. Watauga Orthopaedics has a walk-in clinic for adult and pediatric patients needing urgent orthopedic care in all three locations. Our walk-in clinics are open from 8 am to 8 pm every weekday and from 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday in our Johnson City office. Diagnostic and rehabilitation services are available on-site. Next year, we are scheduled to open the region’s only Center for Advanced Bone and Joint Surgery in Kingsport – an outpatient facility where our highly trained team of surgeons can perform advanced same-day orthopedic surgeries.
Watauga Orthopaedics is always evolving and has responded to a need for virtual care, and have expanded our offerings to include an after-hours virtual clinic. You can connect with an orthopedic specialist from anywhere for non-life-threatening conditions outside clinic hours and on weekends.
