At Dr. Jonathan Aaron Peck's practice, the focus is on partnering with you to restore function, alleviate pain, and help you return to your desired activities. Dr. Peck frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• A frequent and rewarding goal for patients seeing Dr. Peck about chronic low back pain that shoots down their leg is to attain correction of a deformity (e.g., bunion, scoliosis, clubfoot). This success not only improves musculoskeletal health but also paves the way for them to re-engage with activities like confidently navigating uneven surfaces or terrain.
• For individuals troubled by a torn ACL or meniscus in their knee from a sports injury, Dr. Peck's approach is focused on delivering improved hand or foot function for daily activities. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like participating in fitness classes or going to the gym with restored musculoskeletal health.
• The path to improved musculoskeletal wellness, especially when facing a recent ankle sprain that isn't getting better, involves working systematically towards reduced or eliminated numbness and tingling from nerve compression (e.g., carpal tunnel).

What is joint replacement surgery, and when might Dr. Peck recommend it?

Joint replacement surgery, or arthroplasty, is a procedure where damaged or arthritic parts of a joint (like the hip, knee, or shoulder) are removed and replaced with artificial components (prostheses) made of metal, plastic, or ceramic. Dr. Peck might recommend joint replacement if a patient has severe joint pain and loss of function, typically due to advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or a significant injury, and non-surgical treatments (like medication, injections, physiotherapy) are no longer providing adequate relief. The goal is to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance quality of life.

How long is the recovery time after orthopedic surgery with Dr. Peck?

Recovery time after orthopedic surgery varies greatly depending on the type of surgery performed (e.g., arthroscopy vs. joint replacement vs. fracture fixation), the specific joint or bone involved, the patient's age and overall health, and their adherence to the post-operative rehabilitation plan. Some minor procedures may have a recovery of a few weeks, while major surgeries like total joint replacements can take several months for full recovery and return to all activities. Dr. Peck will discuss the expected recovery timeline for a specific procedure during the pre-operative consultation.

What are some common conditions an Orthopedic Surgeon like Dr. Peck treats?

Orthopedic Surgeons like Dr. Peck treat a wide range of musculoskeletal problems. Some common examples include fractures (broken bones), osteoarthritis (especially of the hip, knee, shoulder), sports injuries (like ACL tears, rotator cuff tears, meniscus tears), carpal tunnel syndrome, and tendonitis or bursitis. The goal is always to restore function and reduce pain.

Do I typically need a referral to see an Orthopedic Surgeon like Dr. Peck?

In Ontario, a referral from a family doctor (GP) or another specialist is generally required to see an Orthopedic Surgeon like Dr. Peck for consultations and potential surgical treatments covered by provincial health plans like OHIP.

Diagnostic imaging is usually covered. However, some items like certain braces, custom orthotics, or advanced biologic injections may not be fully covered or may have associated fees.

How does Dr. Peck treat broken bones (fractures)?

Orthopedic Surgeons like Dr. Peck treat all types of bone fractures. Treatment depends on the type and severity of the fracture, its location, and the patient's overall health. Non-surgical treatment may involve realigning the bone (reduction) and immobilizing it with a cast, splint, or brace.
