Arthritis
The foot and ankle specialistsÂ at Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush are also very involved in research, especially in the areas of adult reconstruction, rheumatoid arthritis, industrial injuries, sports medicine, diabetes and biomechanics. Advancements in surgical techniques, prosthesis design, and rehabilitation mean that conditions once considered debilitating can be effectively treated today.
Plantar Fasciitis
Primary Care
An increasing number of managed care plans require that you first obtain an insurance referral from your primary care physician (PCP) before being permitted to visit with us. These insurance referrals may take seven (7) days, or more, to obtain. Specialists who diagnose or treat managed care patients without prior referrals may not be reimbursed by the insurance plan for their services and risk being excluded from seeing plan patients at all. Patients who see specialists without insurance referrals risk being 100% responsible for the costs.
Family Practice
Emergency Care
When you get emergency care or get treated by an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, you are protected from surprise billing or balance billing.

Radiology
When you get services from an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, certain providers there may be out-of-network. In these cases, the most those providers may bill you is your planâ€™s in-network cost-sharing amount. This applies to emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist, or intensivist services. These providers canâ€™t balance bill you and may not ask you to give up your protections not to be balance billed. If you get other services at these in-network facilities, out-of-network providers canâ€™t balance bill you, unless you give written consent and give up your protections.

Orthopedics
Chiropractic care at Midwest Orthopedics at Rush allows for inter-professional communication, comprehensive evaluation, and the ability to meet the surgical and non-surgical needs of our patients. Our Chiropractic team utilizes The McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT)â€”an approach for the management of spinal and extremity problems. It is a reliable research driven process of assessment, classification and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions encouraging active patient involvement and self care.
Sciatica
Arthroscopy
Procedure: Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to examine and possibly repair some knee injuries. A tiny video camera is used during the procedure to pinpoint conditions, such as diseased or injured tissue and shows the surgeon where to trim damaged tissue or removed bone fragments. The surgeon will make two small incisions, one for inserting the arthroscope (camera) to view inside the knee and the other for inserting surgical equipment to make repairs. Consequently, there is little scarring, blood loss, and shorter recuperation time.
Pinched Nerve
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Our highly experienced doctorsÂ are leaders in extremity and pelvis fracture reconstruction, deformity correction, and bone transplantation. These physicians utilize many leading-edge techniques including minimally invasive surgery and advanced external fixation. The latest in bone graft substitutes and bone-forming proteins are often used to assist in the reconstruction of bones that have not healed.Â
Ankle Surgery
If your physician ordered a â€œFunctional Sports Assessmentâ€ or â€œSports Assessment,â€ we need to determine which assessment you will need.Â Youâ€™ll find specifics for each assessment below.Â If you are an athlete whose surgery was related to a throwing motionÂ (Tommy John,Â labralÂ repair,Â little leaguerâ€™s shoulder or elbow,Â etc), youâ€™ll want to choose ourÂ ThrowingÂ Assessment if youâ€™re throwing at a high intensity.Â If you are returning to running only â€“ recreational running, 5k to marathon training, or cross country, youâ€™ll want to do our Running Assessment.Â If you are returning to a sport after hip, knee, or ankle surgery, youâ€™ll want to do aÂ plyometric prep screen if you are just starting to jump in therapy. If you are closer to returning to sport and are comfortable running, jumping, and cutting, youâ€™ll wantÂ toÂ do aÂ Lower Body Assessment.Â
Bunion Surgery
The foot and ankle doctorsÂ at Midwest Orthopaedics at RushÂ are medical doctors and orthopedic surgeons who are trained in treating even the most complex foot and ankle conditions. They apply the most current methods of diagnosis and treatment available, including the latest medications, braces and orthotics. If surgery is necessary, they use leading-edge, minimally invasive procedures that reduce a patient's hospital stay and recovery time. Some of these groundbreaking surgeries include Tightrope bunion surgery, limb realignment, diabetic foot reconstruction, cartilage replacement and total ankle replacement.
Joint Replacement
For joint replacement of the hip and knee, as well as revision of previously replaced joints that are failing, our surgeons specialize in innovative, minimally invasive techniques that help restore mobility and eliminate pain with rapid recovery.
Cyst Removal
Orthopedic Surgery
Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush is widely recognized as the regional leader in comprehensive orthopedic services. The physicians of Midwest Orthopaedics have received specialized training in orthopedic surgery and in subspecialty areas within the field of orthopedic medicine and can diagnose and treat even the most complicated and rare orthopedic conditions. The physicians are supported by a professional staff of physician assistants, registered nurses, athletic, physical and occupational therapists, cast room and X-ray technicians, and administrative personnel.
Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is an outpatient procedure, which means the patient goes home the same day. Two to three weeks post-surgery, the patient returns to Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush for a check-up with the surgeon.
Hip Replacement
Our hip preservation team offers comprehensive treatment to relieve hip pain and help you avoid hip replacement surgery.
Knee Replacement
Robotic hip and knee replacement: Â Robotic technology assistsÂ our surgeons in sizing, placement, and positioning of your implant. Using real-time data, our team can make adjustments during your surgery which means your implant is inserted more accurately.
Knee Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is an outpatient procedure, which means the patient goes home the same day. Physical therapy is often prescribed to help strengthen the muscles around the joint during the recovery process. As much as six months of physical therapy may be required after knee arthroscopy.
Reconstructive Surgery
Procedure: In order to avoid collateral damage, including meniscus tears and degenerative joint disease in the future, reconstructive surgery should typically be performed. This also provides stability and function in the knee. The price of the procedure reflects MOR knee surgeons using an autograftÂ (the patient's own tissue usually from the knee cap tendon or the hamstring) for the repair. Should MOR knee surgeons require the use of an allograftÂ (from a cadaver) ligament, additional fees will apply. These will be disclosed to you upon scheduling the procedure.
