Maryland Orthopedic Specialists

Maryland Orthopedic Specialists Our practice is composed of three board certified orthopedic surgeons who are all fellowship trained in either sports medicine or hand surgery.

Maryland’s premier orthopedic and sports medicine practice, known throughout the community as the experts you can trust to deliver the absolute best level of personalized care. We bring the highest level of patient-centered care available. We are partnered with a dedicated team of rehab specialists (physical therapists and athletic trainers), all of whom share a common goal, to return you to your

peak form. Our physicians and therapists work in a team fashion, employing the most modern therapeutic techniques, and have literally helped thousands of patients each year recover from a wide variety of injuries. When surgical intervention is required, we utilize the most minimally invasive, joint preserving techniques available. With our advanced pain management protocol, patients are returning to work and sports in record time and with minimal discomfort. Our practice is sports medicine focused. For our younger athletes, we specialize in the prevention and treatment of both minor and major sports injuries. We are currently partnered with several area high schools, providing athletic trainers to the schools for true prevention and treatment of minor injuries, and to assess for more serious injuries. We host injury prevention clinics. We pretest all the athletes with an advanced neurocognitive software program, to aid in the management of concussion (click on Our Practice : ImPACT for details). We are acutely sensitive to the needs of our younger patients and will return the athlete to play as quickly as is safely possible. Our adult athletic patients range from current and former professional athletes to recreational and occasional athletes of all ages. While our goals may differ depending on your needs, we will always strive to keep you working hard and playing hard, for as long as you want. For the more worn out athletes, we are focused on joint preservation techniques. When those fail or are inappropriate, our adult reconstructive specialist will help you join the millions of patients with artificial joints, many of whom are still athletes. If you have a work related orthopedic injury, we will partner with your place of employment to return you to work quickly and safely. With our electronic health record, you can pre-enter your medical history and important visit history. You can make and change appointments, contact the office staff, request medication refills, and visit our patient education library. In the office, we can fill our most common prescriptions for you on-site, preventing a visit to the pharmacy and usually at the identical cost. We have digital radiology and a vast array of orthopedic braces. All of our services are designed to make your visit as cost and time efficient as possible. We will be constantly working to improve your experience.

That nagging inner ankle pain? A lower arch than before? It might not be aging — it could be posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD), the leading cause of adult-acquired flatfoot. 🦶

Dr. Gary Feldman sees this often at our offices. This tendon supports your arch like a cable and when it stretches or tears, your arch can gradually collapse.

Watch for: inner ankle pain, a flattening arch, an outward-tilting heel, or your foot "giving out."

Caught early, PTTD often responds well to orthotics, bracing, and PT. Advanced cases may need surgery.

Don't wait for changes to become visible. Head to our blog to read the full article on everything you should know, and then schedule your appointment with us so we can start your healing journey together.

Your child's knee pain keeps coming back after practice, even with ice and rest. 🤔 Sound familiar?

It might not be "growing pains” – it could be Osteochondritis Dissecans (OCD), where bone beneath the cartilage loses blood supply and weakens, most often in the knee, elbow, or ankle.

Caught early in growing athletes, OCD often heals with rest, activity changes, and rehab with no surgery needed.

But watch for persistent pain, lingering swelling, or a joint that catches or locks. Any of those mean it's time to see a specialist.

Dr. Christopher Raffo and our team specialize in youth sports injuries, balancing long-term joint health with getting kids back in the game. Contact us to schedule your appointment with our team of specialists today!
