Highlights:


AVORS Medical Group CEO Joseph Hurley spoke about Innovation within AVORS and the changes AVORS Medical Providers made to improve the lives of those living in the entire Antelope Valley.  Major changes in innovation included Dr. Alon Antebi being the first surgeon in the Antelope Valley to perform Anterior Hip Replacements and the benefits this services offered the Antelope Valley.  Dr. Alon Antebi discussed what lead him to perform the Anterior Hip Replacement  and how this service has allowed patients in the Antelope Valley to obtain world class care here at home and not need to leave to go outside of this valley. The Anterior Hip Replacement reduces dislocations for total hips and reduces the down time patients experience to return back to an active lifestyle. 


Dr. Eric Owashi gave a lecture on what necessitates a total knee replacement, demonstrating knee replacement mechanics, and the focus of AVORS to bring in Robotic Total Knee Replacement by 2023. AVORS CEO Joseph Hurley Spoke again introducing Dr. Justin Sherfey and explained how Dr. Sherfey was the 1st Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine to be recognized by the Royal College of Surgeons and Physicians in Canada. This groundbreaking accomplishment has allowed D.O. to be recognized not only in Canada but internationally as well. Dr. Justin Sherfey spoke about Total Shoulder Replacement and how this procedure is completed by Fellowship Trained Sports Medicine Physicians and discussed about In-Space from Styker helping non-surgical Rotator Cuff Tears. Stem cells injections and new innovative therapies to rely on your body mechanics to heal. Dr. Thomas Nasser spoke about advancements in Pain Management that have radically altered the level of pain in patients lives and discussed Abbott/Nevro Spinal Stimulators, Nevro Diabetic Neuropathy solutions, new procedures called the Mild Procedure, Vertiflex Procedure, and Pain Pumps. New procedures that reduce opioid dependence and help patients live more pain free lives. 


AS AVORS Medical Group has grown, Innovative therapies benefit those who live locally in the Antelope Valley.  AVORS looks forward to next year and showing our patient appreciation with new services, great outcomes, and new possibilities to get patient back to living pain free.  This event will run every year as a giving back to event for AVORS patients for having their Total Joint Replacement or Implant Surgery performed by our AVORS. Our hope is patients can continue to invite others to our patient appreciation event.

Surgery is often a critical step toward recovery—but what happens before and after the procedure can be just as important. At AVORS Medical Group in Lancaster, CA, Dr. Tony Smith , a Board Certified Doctor of Chiropractic and Physiotherapy Rehabilitation, offers comprehensive Pre & Post Surgical Rehabilitation programs designed to optimize healing, restore function, and get patients back to living life fully. Why Pre & Post Surgical Rehab Matters Surgical procedures—whether orthopedic, spinal, or soft tissue—place significant stress on the body. Without proper preparation and recovery, patients may face: Prolonged healing times Muscle atrophy and joint stiffness Reduced mobility and strength Increased risk of re-injury Dr. Smith emphasizes, “Rehabilitation isn’t just about recovery—it’s about preparing the body to heal better and faster, and ensuring long-term success after surgery.” Pre-Surgical Rehabilitation (Prehab) Before surgery, Dr. Smith works with patients to: Strengthen surrounding muscles to support the surgical site Improve joint mobility and flexibility Educate patients on post-surgical expectations and exercises Reduce inflammation and pain to improve surgical outcomes  This proactive approach can lead to shorter hospital stays, fewer complications, and a faster return to normal activities.
