4 common questions about orthopedic services.
FTG Ortho provides a full range of orthopedic care, including sports medicine, spine care, joint replacement, digital imaging, regenerative medicine, weight management and fracture care. We also manage workers’ compensation and liability cases and perform compulsory medical examinations. Treatment ranges from non-surgical therapies to advanced surgical procedures for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle and spine.
Yes. FTG Ortho’s sports medicine team diagnoses and treats sports-related injuries of the upper and lower extremities, such as sprains, strains, ACL and meniscus tears, rotator cuff tears and overuse injuries. The goal is to help you heal and return to your activities safely, with advice that may help lower your risk of future injury.
Yes, FTG Ortho offers minimally invasive techniques for certain procedures, including hip, knee and shoulder joint replacement. These techniques typically use smaller incisions than traditional surgery, which may help some patients recover more comfortably. Whether minimally invasive surgery is right for you depends on your condition, and your surgeon will review the options, risks and benefits with you.
Yes. FTG Ortho has X-ray, MRI and ultrasound imaging on site in Aventura. Having imaging in the same office helps our team diagnose your condition promptly and plan treatment without sending you to another facility. Your provider will decide which type of imaging, if any, is needed based on your symptoms and exam.

1 common question about regenerative medicine.
Regenerative medicine uses substances from your own body, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cells, to support the body’s natural healing process. FTG Ortho offers both PRP and stem cell therapy as non-surgical options for certain orthopedic conditions. Results vary, and your provider will explain whether a regenerative treatment is a good fit for your injury or joint pain.

2 common questions about weight loss and wellness.
Yes. FTG Ortho offers a physician-guided GLP-1 weight loss program with a medical screening before treatment and ongoing monitoring. GLP-1 medications are not right for everyone, so your provider will review your health history to decide whether the program is appropriate. Extra weight can add stress to the knees, hips and back, which is one reason weight management fits within orthopedic care.
FTG Ortho uses EMSCULPT NEO for muscle strengthening and body contouring, including as part of orthopedic recovery plans and alongside the GLP-1 weight loss program. EMVITAL is a non-invasive treatment FTG Ortho offers for musculoskeletal pain relief. Both are BTL devices. Your provider will recommend whether either one fits your goals during a consultation.

2 common questions about work injuries and legal cases.
Yes. FTG Ortho treats patients with work-related injuries and partners with employers, insurance companies and legal teams on workers’ compensation and liability cases. Our approach focuses on objective medical evaluations and documentation-driven care, so everyone involved has clear, accurate information. Let our team know about your claim when you schedule your appointment.
A compulsory medical examination is an evaluation requested as part of a legal or insurance case, usually to give an independent view of a person’s injury or condition. FTG Ortho performs orthopedic CMEs with a focus on objective findings and clear reporting for case documentation. Contact our office to discuss scheduling and the information needed before the exam.
