Knee Arthroscopy
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure using fiber-optic technology to diagnose and treat joint problems. This technique allows for smaller incisions, reduced recovery time, and less postoperative pain compared to traditional open surgery. Patients benefit from same-day procedures and accelerated rehabilitation protocols.
ACL Reconstruction
ACL reconstruction restores knee stability following ligament tears common in sports injuries. Using autograft or allograft tissue, surgeons replace damaged ligaments through arthroscopic techniques. The procedure enables athletes and active individuals to return to high-demand activities with proper rehabilitation.
Total Knee Replacement
Total knee replacement addresses severe arthritis or joint damage by replacing damaged surfaces with prosthetic components. Computer navigation and custom instrumentation improve implant positioning accuracy. Patients experience significant pain relief and improved mobility for daily activities.
Shoulder Arthroscopy
Shoulder arthroscopy treats conditions like rotator cuff tears and labral injuries using minimally invasive techniques. This approach preserves shoulder mobility while addressing structural damage. Recovery typically involves structured physical therapy programs to restore function.
Sports Medicine
Sports medicine focuses on preventing and treating athletic injuries through comprehensive care plans. Services include injury diagnosis, surgical interventions, and performance optimization strategies. The practice caters to professional athletes, weekend warriors, and active individuals seeking to maintain physical activity.

Personally I think Dr. David Mack is a quack. He took no more than 42 seconds with me, did no exam, asked no pertinent questions and just said that I need pain management. He took NO time to find out anything, had no background or experience with me or what I thought about the pain and he states that he is an orthopedic doctor. I got to a point where I could not walk without assistance and am in agonizing pain, but he says that he cannot do anything. I think that it was due to only having Medicare and no other insurance to bill and he saw no profit in it and said "see ya"

Thank you for encouraging me in the direction of waiting for a partial knee replacement. Its not that painful, I just wanted to make sure I was staying in the wisdom of the right time to do it for my age. I hope I can make to that 80 time frame! Yall are always willing to listen, and I greatly appreciate that. Im looking forward to the phone call to come in for the hylaronic injection that will take me out another six months in the right direction. Thank you so much, its always a positive experience.

I had a total knee replacement on 8/24/21. I cant tell you what a friendly professional officeDr Mack has. Everyone treated me as I had known them forever. From reception to vitals,X-rays,treatment follow ups they didnt skip a beat. Today 3 1/2 weeks later Im walking (Slowly) with out any assistance. I still need plenty of PT, to get back to full motion. Im on the road to recovery. I plan on having Dr Mack do my other knee God willing in January. Highly recommend Dr Mack for any orthopedic needs.
