As we age, aches and pains may seem inevitable, but giving up your favorite activities doesn’t have to be. Thanks to advances in orthopedic care—including a wide range of non-surgical and minimally invasive treatments—today’s seniors can stay active, pain-free and independent longer than ever before. The board-certified/eligible, fellowship-trained team of orthopedic surgeons at Greater Washington Orthopaedic Group (GWOG) is dedicated to helping you maintain your quality of life, so you can keep moving and doing what you love.
“Any time you can improve joint motion and function, the patient can improve mobility and exercise, which helps heart and lung function and longevity of life,” says GWOG president and joint replacement specialist Dr. Irvin A. Guterman. “Improve mobility, improve quality of life.”
For more than 40 years, GWOG has proudly served Montgomery County from its offices in Rockville, Silver Spring and Germantown. Each location is staffed by experienced surgeons and physical therapists who provide extensive diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical services to help patients get back to their best selves. Through comprehensive assessments, they develop tailored treatment plans that address each patient’s unique injuries and recovery goals. From sports injuries to overuse pain, age-related issues such as stiffness from arthritis or joint pain, workers’ compensation claims and motor vehicle accidents, GWOG has specialists for every aspect of orthopedic care.
“The most important thing when you become older is that you’re able to walk and be active,” says GWOG spine specialist Dr. David Perim. “Newer techniques and treatments allow individuals to maintain their activity well into their later years.”
