Welcome To The Rapid Access Knee Osteoarthritis Clinic By Avella
Physician-Led, Evidence Based Care For Knee OA
At Avella, our Rapid Knee OA Clinic is led by experienced physicians dedicated to the diagnosis and non-surgical management of knee osteoarthritis. We provide timely care grounded in the latest evidence to help you regain mobility and improve quality of life.
What To Expect
Your care begins with a thorough physician assessment, including a detailed medical history, physical exam, and diagnostic imaging such as X-rays when needed.
Next, we offer a comprehensive biomechanical assessment to understand how your knee moves and functions. Using advanced gait analysis and biomechanical evaluation, we identify factors like movement patterns, muscle strength, joint stability, and alignment that influence your pain and disease progression.
Key Components of the Biomechanical Assessment
- Gait Analysis to spot abnormal loading orcompensations
- Muscle Function Testing to assess strength and control
- Joint Stability Evaluation to detect any instability
- Alignment Check for issues like varus or valgus deformities
- Proprioception and Balance Testing to evaluate joint position sense
Why This Matters
Biomechanical stressors such as poor alignment or instability can worsen inflammation and joint damage.
Early detection enables targeted treatments that can slow OA progression, ease pain, and enhance function.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Our physicians develop individualized care plans designed around your unique needs and goals. Treatment options include:
- Medication management (over-the-counter and prescription)
- Viscosupplementation (hyaluronic acid) injections for joint lubrication
- Corticosteroid injections for targeted inflammation relief
- Bracing solutions (soft and rigid) for stability and pain reduction
- Custom orthotics to optimize alignment and relieve pressure
- Alternative therapies such as acupuncture or massage for symptom relief
Our Approach
We emphasize early intervention through an interdisciplinary, physician-driven model focused on non-surgical management. Surgical referral is available when conservative measures are insufficient.
