Dr. Richard Woodworth practices orthopedic trauma and sports medicine in Las Vegas, NV and Henderson, NV.

"I have had two separate surgeries with Dr. Woodworth. I ruptured both quadriceps and a hip replacement. He takes time to explain the procedure, recovery, and gives you phone numbers that real people answer. The two surgeries were separated by about four years and I was expecting to see new staff. It was very comforting to recognize the the same staff. I have recommended Dr.Woodworth to my friends and anyone who might be going through the difficult time in deciding to have surgery. "

What is Orthopedic Trauma?

Orthopedic trauma is a branch of orthopedic surgery that focuses on the care of seriously broken bones, especially following accidents. Although all orthopedic surgeons treat common fractures, some breaks are difficult to treat and require specialized care in order to heal properly. Some examples of the kinds of injuries that an orthopedic trauma specialist might handle include:

Multiple fractures or crushing injuries
Compound fractures, where a broken bone pierces the skin
Breaks in a joint, which can lead to arthritis
Hip and pelvic fractures
Infections in a broken bone
Nonunions, or breaks that won't heal
Malunions, or breaks that are misaligned

Treatment provided by an orthopedic trauma specialist depends on the type and extent of the injury. In some cases it is sufficient to have a cast, brace, or other external way of supporting the broken bone while it heals. More significant injuries may require surgery to place structures such as pins, screws, and plates to stabilize the healing bone. In the most complex injuries, bone grafting or limb lengthening procedures may be used.

Orthopedic trauma specialists often work in hospitals, and they work closely with emergency professionals as well as reconstructive surgeons. In the case of a severe fracture or complications from a broken bone, orthopedic trauma specialists are the doctors that can get you moving again.
