Sports Injury Treatment
The specialists at Orthopedic Associates of West Jersey (OAWJ) understand how important it is to heal properly and quickly after a sports injury. We have a wealth of experience treating athletes of all abilities – from weekend warriors to professional sports team members.
Our doctors will evaluate and diagnose your injury and then implement the most effective treatment regimen that will allow you to return safely to your sport.
Most sports injuries respond to conservative treatment, but if you end up needing surgery, our doctors utilize the most up-to-date minimally invasive surgical techniques when appropriate, followed by physical therapy to facilitate your recovery. Our doctors will also communicate with coaches and trainers to ensure they are informed of an athlete's condition and prognosis.

- Knee ligament tears and reconstruction (ACL, MCL, PCL, LCL)
