Find Relief From Hip Pain
SOSI has helped bring a dedicated joint-replacement program to the Yampa Valley. The program is based on exceptional patient experience and collaborative continuum of care, serving as a multi-disciplinary internal crosscheck that monitors specific parameters and utilizes patient feedback for continuous improvement and success.
Recently, SOSI surgeons have focused on improved post-operative pain and advanced early recovery for joint-replacement patients. Computerized technology helps perfect implant placement while eliminating muscle damage. This, combined with multi-modal pre- and post-surgery medications and intra-operative long-acting agents in the soft and bony tissues at the time of joint replacement, promotes rapid rehabilitation and prevents patients from waking up in severe pain.
SOSI’s experienced team of surgeons emphasizes evaluation before surgery, optimizing every aspect of care including physical therapy, nutrition, decreased risk of infection, operating room optimization, and more.

Our Outcomes Report
Navigating Orthopaedic surgery without assistance can be overwhelming. Many people have friends and family members with variable outcomes after surgery and it can be difficult to make sense of these differences. The providers at Steamboat Orthopaedic and Spine Institute (SOSI) believe that total transparency in surgical outcomes is the patient’s right. SOSI has been a leader in developing a national database to provide patients with transparency surrounding their surgical care.
We collect data on patient satisfaction, pain, function and complication rates on all of our surgical patients with at least a 89% follow-up rate at one year. This means we track nearly all patients, and our statistics are a true reflection of surgical quality. This is information that we are proud to provide to patients and referring providers. The graphs included in this brochure demonstrate that patients have significant improvement in physical function, social participation and reduction in pain following surgery. Furthermore, over 91% of patients are completely satisfied with their outcome, exceeding the benchmark at elite medical centers.
Lastly, we have made a significant effort to help patients achieve opioid independence following surgery. With our protocol we have had an unprecedented ability to help patients reach this goal. SOSI understands that not every patient is at the point of requiring surgery. This is why we utilize all non-operative options prior to considering surgical intervention. Many patients simply want to understand the source of their pain, and would like a thorough diagnostic evaluation, along with education, regarding their diagnosis and treatment options. We take the time to make sure patients understand their options. Our team is honored and humbled to provide quality comprehensive orthopaedic and spine care for our patients. We are excited to provide subspecialized care in our state-of-the-art clinic, imaging and surgery center. There are few ailments that create more disability than musculoskeletal pain, and we are here to assist you. Please call 970-879-6663 or fax 970-871-1234 for appointments or referrals.
