The Orthopedic Surgery Department at Artesia General Hospital delivers personalized care to patients suffering from musculoskeletal disorders. Our services cover a range of surgery options with particular specialties in arthroscopic surgery, carpal tunnel surgery, fracture care and a variety of muscle and bone conditions. Our fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons, Dr. Marshall Baca and Dr. Zhinian Wan, use the latest surgical techniques and advanced surgical procedures, including minimally invasive techniques.

We also specialize in sports medicine.
