Arthritis
This anterior cruciate ligament is a thick fibrous band that connects the femur (the thigh bone) with the tibia (shin bone). If the ACL is completely torn, the knee becomes unstable. Because long-term instability may lead to early arthritis of the knee, a proper diagnosis is necessary to obtain the best possible outcome. By recognizing the instability and reconstructing the ACL, the chance of degenerative changes in the joint are reduced. A small percentage of people may be able to function with a torn ACL; however, this usually requires modification of activity.

Arthroscopy
Knee joint arthroscopy is performed with a surgical arthroscope that allows the surgeon to indirectly view the knee's anatomy on a television monitor. Torn or ragged tissue can be easily trimmed and removed, and other structures can be viewed to verify that they are intact. Three to four small, half-inch incisions allow the arthroscopic camera and other instruments to be inserted into the knee joint. The arthroscope's small video camera allows the surgeon and assistants to access the status of the knee's anatomy, including both cruciate ligaments, the lateral and medial meniscus, and other soft tissue structures.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Recovery time from arthroscopic surgery is much shorter than it is for conventional or open surgery. Because the incisions for this minimally invasive surgery are much smaller, patients experience less post-operative discomfort, and are able to return to their daily activities in a much shortened time period.
Cyst Removal
Orthopedic Surgery
Thanks to Dr. Ahlfeld, Dr. Matt, and the rest of the team, I am able to participate in the sports I love, without the pain that I had before my knee surgery. It was to the point that playing in the yard with my kids was painful for me and now I am able to chase them all over the place. You could not ask for a better team if you are considering orthopedic surgery.

Knee Replacement
A total knee replacement is used to treat severe osteoarthritis of the knee. The procedure resurfaces the medial and lateral compartments of femur and tibia as well as the patella.
Knee Arthroscopy
The cartilage that cushions the shoulder socket is also known as the labrum. This tissue can tear from compression, twisting and often overuse injuries of the shoulder. Small tear can be debrided away similar to a knee arthroscopy, however larger tears need to be anchored back to the glenoid to assure proper attachment and full function.
Reconstructive Surgery
Juwan Morgan underwent arthroscopic reconstructive surgery for an unstable shoulder by Dr. Ahlfeld while playing basketball at Indiana University. He had a complete recovery and after the surgery completed an extremely successful career becoming one of the all-time leading scorers in Indiana history. He also finished in the top ten in rebounds, blocked shots, and field goal percentage.

Tennis Elbow
Tennis Elbow, also called lateral epicondylitis, is a very common form of tendinitis that occurs in at a specific area on the lateral elbow. The cause of this condition is believed not to be inflammatory in nature, but may be related to sustained overuse of the forearm, called repetitive trauma. In some instances, the condition may be work-related, or sports-related as well. Although the name implies a direct correlation with the sport of tennis, you do not have to play tennis to get this condition.
Shoulder Pain
Manual Therapy
For patients that do not require surgery, physical therapy is a proven way to decrease pain and restore function. We pride ourselves assessment of in not just providing generic types of treatments and any treatments recommended will be based on thorough and proper evaluation of each patient. For patient experience pain, modalities such as cortisone, ultrasound and taping are available to add comfort. For other that see a lack of performance due to a tightness or weakness, manual therapy augmented with specific muscle control exercise may be needed. Whatever the injury or discrepancy, we will find the cause and treat accordingly. Don't be fooled by quick fixes and marketing tactics. Unlike other types of clinicians, as a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Dr. Matt Sowder possesses the knowledge and ability to evaluate your limitations, design a treatment plan and provide education on maintenance and proper mechanics.
