Sports Medicine
Specialized treatment for sports-related injuries combines advanced diagnostics with minimally invasive techniques. Our approach focuses on rapid recovery while preventing re-injury through personalized rehabilitation plans. Athletes benefit from evidence-based protocols developed through treating professional sports teams and Olympic competitors.
Shoulder Arthroscopy
This procedure repairs rotator cuff tears and shoulder instability through small incisions using specialized instruments. Patients experience faster healing and reduced scarring compared to traditional open surgery. The technique preserves surrounding tissues while restoring full range of motion.
Progenitor Cell Therapy
Harnessing the body's natural healing cells to repair cartilage damage and treat osteoarthritis. This FDA-approved therapy offers surgical alternatives for joint pain relief. Patients see improved mobility and reduced inflammation without extensive recovery periods.
PRP Therapy
Concentrated platelet injections accelerate tissue repair for tendon injuries and joint conditions. The outpatient procedure uses the patient's own blood components to stimulate healing. Effective for chronic pain management and post-surgical recovery.

The practice offers traditional and reverse shoulder replacement options tailored to individual anatomy. Hip and knee replacements utilize anterior approach techniques for faster rehabilitation.

Report
My mother is a senior citizen. She was referred to this facility and was horribly serviced. The physicians assistant was so rude to her, with regards of how he spoke to her. She showed early to an appointment and was rudely demanded that she come back after 10am. She then asked when it would be a better time, someone told her 1030am. Due to them having a production crew at the time, I guess maybe the assistant may had been under some sort of pressure and could have been experiencing stress or anxiety. That gives no valid reason, for someone who represents a company and that is supposed to carry

I was worried about my injury but Dr. Parsa completely put me at ease and walked me through the steps I need to take to have a successful recovery. She is very knowledgeable, caring, and one of the best doctors I have been treated by. Thank you Dr. Parsa for being so amazing!!!

I went to see Dr. Parsa after experiencing debilitating knee pain while running. Dr. Parsa and her team were amazing in the care and quality of service and after care they provided. There is a great energy about the office environment as well as the level of detail they took in understanding my needs and injury. Dr Parsa got me back on my feet to run my first marathon!
