Beaufort, SC – Beaufort Memorial Orthopedic Specialists Expand Team and Offer New Solutions for Joint Pain Management

Beaufort Memorial Orthopedic Specialists (BMOS) are enhancing their joint care services with the addition of two medical professionals and a renewed focus on innovative treatment options for joint pain. Dr. Patrick Pallitto, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in adult reconstructive surgery, joins the team alongside board-certified family nurse practitioner Aron Love.

Dr. Pallitto, who has experience in hip and knee replacements, primary and revision arthroplasty, robotics, and minimally invasive techniques, will provide care across Bluffton, Beaufort, and Hilton Head Island. His clinical approach emphasizes personalized care plans and the restoration of function and long-term joint health.

The new orthopedic innovations at BMOS include the use of the MAKO SmartRobotics™ system for precise surgical planning and implant placement. This technology aims to enhance patient outcomes in joint replacement surgeries.

Dr. Vandit Sardana, another orthopedic specialist at BMOS, focuses on non-surgical management of joint pain. He recommends low-impact activities such as swimming and biking as effective ways for patients to relieve joint pain. Conservative treatment options for managing joint pain include topical gel creams, NSAIDs, cortisone injections, and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy.

In addition to their expanded team, BMOS will host a free seminar titled “Talk with the Doc: Solutions for Joint Pain” on April 8 in Port Royal. This event aims to educate participants about osteoarthritis and various non-surgical treatment options available. Attendees will learn about innovative robot-assisted procedures and can register through the BMOS website.

Aron Love, who will treat patients before and after orthopedic surgeries, has a background in athletic training and emergency care. He will manage various orthopedic conditions, including arthritis and fractures, further bolstering the capabilities of BMOS in treating patients.

Beaufort Memorial’s orthopedics specialists are dedicated to enhancing the quality of care in the region.
