WNY Cartilage Restoration Center

The Western New York Cartilage Restoration Center (WNYCRC) offers a broad range of contemporary treatment options for knee cartilage injuries, including the latest minimally invasive procedures adapted for both arthroscopic and joint replacement surgery. In some cases, not only will these procedures resolve pain and restore function, but may also delay the progression of arthritis.
WNYCRC is dedicated to the treatment of knee disorders involving the injury and aging of articular cartilage. The WNYCRC was founded based on the need for specialized patient care and emphasizes the importance of patient education and research. The Center is a division of the Department of Orthopaedics, State University of New York at Buffalo and its practice plan, UB Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine.
