Welcome to the Center for Advanced Orthopaedics & Sports
Medicine, PC. Dr. Keith Penney and his exceptional staff
are dedicated to providing the best possible orthopedic care for
Northwest Connecticut. Emphasizing attentive and personalized
care, our goal is to provide the high quality care you would expect
at a larger medical institution, but much closer to home.
Our practice utilizes the latest and most advanced methods of
diagnosis and treatment currently available to take care of your
specific orthopedic injury. We strongly believe that most orthopedic
conditions are best treated non-operatively, but if surgery is
warranted, we offer the most advanced, minimally invasive techniques
available. This effectively reduces pain and speeds up recovery
time. The practice is located in the state-of-the-art medical
office building adjacent to Charlotte Hungerford Hospital. For
your convenience, digital x-ray is available on premises, which
is seamlessly linked to the PACS system at the radiology department
at the hospital. A new portable musculoskeletal ultrasound machine
in the office will improve diagnostic accuracy, while reducing
delays in obtaining other, more costly, static imaging studies. An
ultrasound is done dynamically, in real-time, with the patient
viewing the images during the exam. This will allow for a therapeutic
treatment program to begin almost immediately, easing pain and
suffering. An electronic medical record system has been utilized
for many years, which reduces paperwork and improves overall
office efficiency.
We look forward to caring for your orthopedic needs. We encourage
you to contact us directly for
helpful and friendly answers to your questions. We now offer a computerized concussion evaluation system, called ImPACT (Immediate Post-concussion Assessment & Cognitive Testing), for our student athletes. Dr. Penney is currently the only Credentialed ImPACT Consultant in Northwest Connecticut.
