Arthroscopy is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive technique that Dr. Rosas uses to diagnose and treat joint problems in the knee and shoulder. Instead of making large incisions, he makes small ones and uses a tiny camera to see inside your joint. .
This allows him to repair issues like torn ligaments or damaged cartilage with greater precision and less trauma to your body. The result is a faster recovery, less pain, and smaller scars. If you’ve been struggling with joint pain or limited movement, arthroscopy can be an effective solution that gets you back to your active lifestyle more quickly.
