Fracture & Trauma Care at OSI

If you've broken a bone — wrist, ankle, hip, shoulder, or any fracture from a fall or accident — we evaluate it, set the plan, and follow you through to full recovery. Most fractures are treated here, with surgeries at our partner hospitals across the region.

What we treat here

Common procedures in this region

Most operative trauma at OSI is ORIFopen reduction and internal fixation. The surgeon restores the bone's anatomic position (reduction) through a surgical exposure (open), then holds that position with plates, screws, rods, or wires (internal fixation) while the fracture heals. The implants and approach are chosen for each bone and each fracture pattern; the underlying principle is the same across the body: put the pieces back in the right place and hold them there.

When to call us vs. go to the ER

If you have severe pain, an obvious deformity, loss of sensation, or any concern for a fracture or dislocation, go to the nearest emergency room. For non-emergent evaluation of a healing fracture, lingering trauma pain, or a concern something isn't healing right, call (830) 625-0009.
