What Types of Orthopaedic Care Does Atlantis Orthopedics Offer?

Updated

Atlantis Orthopedics offers four main care categories: advanced joint care (from non-surgical treatment through joint replacement surgery), general orthopaedics for musculoskeletal conditions, non-operative pain management focused on the neck and back, and specialty care tied to its physician team — spine, hip and knee, foot and ankle, shoulder and elbow, shoulder, and sports medicine. The practice has served Palm Beach County since 1992, with locations serving Jupiter, Loxahatchee, Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, Lake Worth, Boynton Beach, and Delray Beach.

Advanced Joint Care

This category covers the full range from non-surgical treatments to advanced joint replacement surgery. The site's news section shows how the practice frames joint care decisions:

  • Custom fit and robotics — a July 17, 2026 article discusses how robotics personalize partial and total knee replacements.
  • Total vs. partial knee replacement — a July 16, 2026 article covers tailoring the choice between total and partial replacement for joint longevity.

If you are weighing whether you need surgery at all, this is the service line to ask about first, since it explicitly starts with non-surgical options.

General Orthopaedics

The practice describes this as comprehensive orthopaedic care for all musculoskeletal conditions and concerns. This is the broadest entry point — appropriate if you have a bone, joint, or muscle issue and are not yet sure which specialist you need.

Pain Management

Atlantis Orthopedics provides individualized, non-operative pain management for orthopaedic issues, including the neck and back. Note the emphasis on non-operative: this is a conservative-treatment track rather than a surgical one.

Specialty Areas and the Physician Team

Care is also organized around the specific specialties of the physicians listed on the site:

Specialty Physician
Spine Surgery Edward Chung, MD
Hip and Knee Salvador Forte, DO
Foot & Ankle Rommel Francisco, DO
Pain Management and Spine Gary P. Laux, DO
Shoulder, Elbow Diego J. Lima, MD
Sports Medicine Brian K. Reiter, MD
Shoulder Howard Routman, DO

This table is the practical way to match your problem to a provider: a shoulder issue points to Routman or Lima, a foot or ankle issue to Francisco, a knee or hip issue to Forte, and a back or neck issue to Chung or Laux.

Additional Support: Free Expert Advice

The practice has partnered with HURT! to provide free advice from an orthopaedic expert, available 24/7, 365 days a year. This is a route to a preliminary opinion before or instead of booking a visit.

How to Act on This

  • Not sure which service line fits? Start with general orthopaedics, or use the HURT! advice line.
  • Already know the body part involved? Use the specialty table above to identify the relevant physician.
  • Want to avoid surgery if possible? Ask about advanced joint care's non-surgical options or the pain management track.
  • Ready to book? The site provides a "Schedule an Appointment" action and a patient portal for existing patients.

One limitation worth noting: the site does not publish pricing, insurance details, or appointment availability, so those questions need to be directed to the practice directly.
