Fracture Care

The term fracture means broken and whether you have a complete or partial fracture, you have a broken bone. Fractures can happen in a variety of ways, but there are three common causes: trauma, such as a fall or a motor vehicle accident; Osteoporosis, a bone disease which causes bones to weaken and become more fragile; or over-use, which can result in stress fractures, something that is more common among athletes. Caring for such fractures is one of the most basic services offered at Pinnacle and each of our physicians has extensive experience in treating a wide variety of fractures.
