The Center for Women's Musculoskeletal Health at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City has developed a comprehensive, multidisciplinary women's sports medicine and orthopedic program to assess all aspects of women's musculoskeletal needs. Our center is staffed exclusively by board-certified and fellowship-trained female physicians and orthopedic surgeons, as well as experienced physical and occupational therapists-all of whom are especially sensitive to women's unique orthopedic conditions.

Women have always led physically active lives. Today, their unique musculoskeletal conditions are better understood than ever before, and the need for gender-specific women's sports medicine and orthopedic programs grows every year. Injuries and other orthopedic conditions often present differently in women than they do in men. In addition, biologic and gender-specific issues account for a higher prevalence of certain orthopedic injuries and conditions in women.

In an effort to evaluate and treat the unique nature of women's orthopedic injuries, the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Beth Israel (recently honored as a "Best Hospital for Orthopedic Surgery" by New York Magazine) has established the Center for Women's Musculoskeletal Health.
