I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Ronald Paik from the Nirschl Orthopaedic Center on the latest edition of the CHP Spotlight Interview Series. The mission of the CHP Spotlight Interview Series is to share information with you from the greatest experts in the fields of sports medicine, sports physical therapy, personal training, and performance. Now, more than ever, there is a seemingly infinite amount of information available and finding the most credible information is a challenge. The good news is that we are here to help you find the best information related to physical therapy, personal training, and sports medicine from experts surrounding us in Bethesda, Chevy Chase, DC, McLean and Northern Virginia.
If you or someone you love has had a shoulder, elbow or knee injury, don’t miss this interview! Dr. Paik explains what you can do if you have experienced a shoulder, elbow or knee injury and what risk factors you can address right now to reduce your risk of injury. He goes on to share when surgery may be appropriate and when conservative options like physical therapy are a better choice. If you are a baseball player, field sport athlete, or weekend warrior, this is for you.
Dr. Paik is an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine physician specializing in treating complex disorders of the shoulder, elbow, and knee. His goal is to pursue non-operative treatments, like physical therapy when possible, but he is experienced in advanced arthroscopic procedures, surgical repair and reconstruction, and total joint replacements.
