Advanced Orthopedic Surgery Center (AOSC) and LESS

Some doctors refer patients or family members to their colleagues because of personal or social relationships, our out of cultural or professional affiliations. Other times they refer to a surgeon because they think that surgeon is the best person for the job. Where do they refer themselves?

When I see other doctors as patients, they come because they think we are the best equipped to meet their needs. It’s a telling sign when we have the privilege to perform surgery on another orthopedic surgeon – something we’ve done several times. Maybe that’s how Dr. Hyman got the nickname, “the surgeon’s surgeon”

The LESS Advantage. Why LESS is MORE

Doing Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) or using Less Exposure Surgery Solutions (LESS) has several advantages.

Question: Why choose a surgeon who specializes in LESS?

Answer: Choosing LESS means choosing LESS invasive options for your care, trying to avoid surgery if possible. Should you need surgery, choosing LESS means choosing less risk and less drama, before, during and after surgery.

A skilled Surgeon and a minimally invasive Less Exposure Surgical Solution can lead to:

  • LESS STRESS in choosing a doctor. LESS surgeons are truly tops in their field.
  • LESS BLEEDING (reduced surgical blood loss)
  • LESS PAIN when you wake up or go home
  • LESS DAMAGE (reduced tissue injury)
  • LESS TIME under the knife (reducing drugs and anesthesia)
  • LESS RISK (reduced chance of complications, infections, etc)
  • LESS DRUGS (fewer anesthetic gases and narcotics needed during surgery)
  • LESS RADIATION exposure for the patient and surgeon
  • LESS SIDE EFFECTS (reduced nausea/vomiting/constipation after surgery)
  • LESS SCARRING tissue and wound care

I would like to thank you sincerely for the great care that you have provided me. I am deeply grateful to both of you and all your wonderful clinic and hospital team.

Dr. Hyman diagnosed my problem right away. I had surgery a couple of months later and now after 2 years I feel like a new person.

Since Dr. Hyman operated on my left hip I’ve been able to walk better, longer, and with better ease than I could ever imagine.

I thank God every day that I had that surgery since I have finally gotten rid of the pain that has kept me awake at night for years.

I appreciate you taking the time to educate me about my injury. I also appreciate the kindness and professionalism of the entire staff at Atlanta Sports Medicine.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. For the first time in approximately a year and a half I am pain free.

I appreciate the attentive, professional care and could not envision a better experience. I truly am thankful to be under your care.
