When you break a bone, you can trust Southeastern Orthopaedics to provide compassionate and expert care. Our surgeons will work together with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs. We understand the importance of restoring function and mobility, and our physicians are committed to helping you get back to health as quickly and safely as possible.

At Southeastern Orthopaedics, we treat a variety of types of broken bones, such as:

• Closed fracture - A closed fracture occurs when the broken bone does not break through the skin
• Open fracture - This is a fracture where the bone protrudes through the skin.
• Greenstick fracture: A fracture where the bone is bent, but not completely broken.
• Hairline fracture - A small crack in the bone that does not completely separate the bone.
• Transverse fracture - This fracture runs horizontally across the bone.
• Oblique fracture - A fracture that runs at an angle across the bone.
• Comminuted fracture - This is a fracture where the bone breaks into three or more pieces.
• Stress fracture - A small crack in the bone caused by repetitive stress or overuse.
• Pathologic fracture - A pathologic fracture is caused by an underlying condition that weakens the bone, such as osteoporosis or cancer.

No matter the extent of your injury, we’ll be there to provide you with the best possible care and help you get back on your feet.
