The Saunders Center for Orthopaedics & Physical Performance is one of the few centers in the nation that combines orthopaedic care with metabolic bone disease treatment.

UR Medicine's Approach

Together with your doctor, you will determine the most suitable treatment for your bone condition. While UR Medicine offers a range of treatments and protocols, the ideal approach will depend on several factors, including your age and overall health, the severity of the condition, your tolerance for certain medications, and your personal preferences and goals.

"I saw Dr. Obourn...He taught me hip strengthening exercises, quad strengthening exercises… and things to prevent surgery in my right hip and it's worked out great."
