Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Cartilage Candidates: Patients who are physically active and have a healthy joint but suffer some form of articular cartilage damage. Patients should be of a healthy weight and not have certain contraindications like severe osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Plantar Fasciitis
Medical Weight Loss
Millions of people in the United States suffer from arthritis and osteoporosis. As a growing medical issue, the physicians at Nebraska Orthopaedic Center are specially trained to treat a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions. Some of the most commonly treated problems include musculoskeletal pain, arthritis, osteoporosis, and autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. Various treatment options do exist for patients who are diagnosed with arthritis, osteoporosis, or a musculoskeletal condition. Depending on the patient’s situation, we may recommend physical therapy, joint and muscle exercises to improve strength and flexibility, weight management to relieve stress on weight-bearing joints, anti-inflammatory drugs for degenerative joint disorders, heat/cold therapies, or partial or total joint replacement.
Primary Care
Primary care physicians who refer patients will be kept up to date with information on the patient’s progress and our patients are referred to their primary care physician at the end of treatment.
Emergency Care
Our Ortho Quick Care provides immediate treatment for patients suffering from acute orthopaedic injuries. This service is considered a specialist visit, so you won’t pay for the higher co-pays that some insurance plans require for urgent care services.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Nerve problems are very common issue affecting many people. Symptoms of a nerve problem include pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness. These problems range from carpal tunnel syndrome to pinched nerves in the neck or lower back. Our, physiatrist, Dr. Joseph P. Mulka, is specialty trained to diagnose nerve problems using a test called electromyography and nerve conduction studies (EMG/NCS). The results of this test are used to pinpoint the problem area and to help guide your treatment. Conditions that are frequently diagnosed by this test include...

Ultrasound
Many joint and musculoskeletal problems are treated with injections. Some injections that are given need image guidance to make sure the medicine is placed in the right location. The most common forms of image guidance are ultrasound and x-ray (fluoroscopy). Our physiatrist, Dr. Joseph Mulka, uses ultrasound guidance for these injections to place medication at the source of the problem, without exposing you to radiation. Some common injections that ultrasound guidance is used for include...
MRI
The MRI technologist will begin by screening you for any non-MRI compatible implants and making sure your clothes are appropriate prior to bringing you into the MRI room.
Radiology
These facilities, combined with integrated radiology and hospital partnerships, streamline the treatment process, speeding the road to recovery. Our goal is to restore normal function through safe and effective treatment.

Pinched Nerve

Depending on the condition, surgery, minimally invasive surgery (arthroscopy), or other types of non-surgical methods may be utilized in the treatment of hand and upper extremity disorders or injuries. Some of the more common disorders of the hand and upper extremity include...
Joint Replacement
It can be hard to cope with the pain and physical limitations of arthritis and other joint disorders. Although some 43 million Americans suffer from hip and knee conditions, approximately 426,000 total hip and knee replacements take place each year. More and more, people are realizing that joint replacement can make their lives much better. If you have joint pain that interferes with your daily activities, you don’t have to give in to it. Nebraska Orthopaedic Center’s total joint replacement team can help.
Hand Surgery
At Nebraska Orthopaedic Center, we provide comprehensive orthopaedic healthcare, offering a wide variety of orthopaedic services including sports medicine, arthroscopic surgery, total joint replacement, hand surgery, and spinal surgery.
Orthopedic Surgery
Arthroscopy
Hip arthroscopy (also called a hip scope) is a minimally invasive surgery used to treat issues in your hip. Your surgeon will make a few small incisions (cuts) in the skin of your hip then insert a special tool called an arthroscope into your hip joint. The arthroscope includes a camera and a light that lets your surgeon identify and repair damage inside your hip. They’ll also insert any other small tools they need to repair damage to your bones or connective tissues.
Hip Replacement
A partial hip replacement (also known as a “hemiarthroplasty”) is used most commonly to treat a fractured hip. Unlike total hip replacement procedures, partial hip replacement only replaces the ball portion of the hip joint, not the socket portion.
Knee Replacement
In unicompartmental knee replacement (also called “partial” knee replacement) only a portion of the knee is resurfaced with metal and plastic components. This procedure is an alternative to total knee replacement for patients whose disease is limited to just one area of the knee.
Knee Arthroscopy
During knee arthroscopy, your surgeon inserts a small camera, called an arthroscope, into your knee joint. The camera displays pictures on a video monitor, and your surgeon uses these images to guide miniature surgical instruments
