Hip Injuries & Arthroscopy

Dr. Mitchell trained in hip preservation at The Steadman Clinic under pioneers of modern hip arthroscopy — and co-authored a textbook on the subject. He brings that experience to hip pain that’s keeping you from moving the way you want.

Conditions & Procedures

Each of these areas will grow into its own detailed patient-education page. Here’s an overview of the hip care Dr. Mitchell provides.

🔬

Hip Arthroscopy

Minimally invasive, camera-guided hip surgery — smaller incisions, faster recovery, and joint preservation as the goal. Dr. Mitchell co-authored "Hip Arthroscopy: Basic Strategies to Advanced Techniques."

⚙️

Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI)

Extra bone on the ball or socket that pinches with motion — a common cause of groin pain in athletes, treatable arthroscopically when conservative care isn’t enough.

🩹

Labral Tears & Repair

The labrum seals and stabilizes the hip. Dr. Mitchell repairs labral tears with techniques aimed at restoring that natural fluid seal — a subject of his published research.

💪

Gluteal Tendon & Trochanteric Pain

Side-of-the-hip pain from gluteus medius tears and trochanteric bursitis — from targeted non-operative care to arthroscopic and open repair, backed by his published outcomes work.

🧪

Hip Cartilage Injuries

Cartilage damage in the hip, addressed with joint-preserving strategies informed by Dr. Mitchell’s research and fellowship training in hip preservation.

🏃

Non-Operative Hip Care

Injections, targeted physical therapy, and activity modification — with published return-to-running protocols after hip surgery co-authored by Dr. Mitchell.

💬

Groin or hip pain with activity?

Hip problems in active people are frequently missed or mislabeled. An exam by a hip-trained sports medicine surgeon can save months of chasing the wrong diagnosis.
