Knees First

About
^{Knees First}

Established in 2007, Knees First is a specialized orthopedic practice with offices in Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona. The experienced team, led by Dr. Shaun Peterson, consists of board-certified nurse practitioners with years of experience in patient care and knee treatments. Marianne Parham, RNFA, is a veteran of the US Army, while Ambrosia Boyd, DNP, FNP-C, served with the US Air Force. They, alongside Ashley Ciallella, PA-C, offer personalized services to patients experiencing chronic knee pain, using a conservative, proven alternative to knee replacement surgery. Knees First focuses on nonsurgical knee treatments such as hyaluronic acid injections, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, and non-surgical knee arthritis treatment. Hyaluronic acid injections can ease joint pain and improve mobility even when other treatments, like steroid injections, haven’t helped. Stem cells and PRP use biological substances taken from the human body. When injected into damaged tissues, they promote new healing. These cutting-edge approaches to treating conditions like knee arthritis delay the need for patients to undergo surgery. In many cases, patients can avoid surgical options like joint replacement that not that long ago would have been the only way to resolve their symptoms. At their modern, comfortable offices, Knees First’s practitioners use the latest imaging technology to guarantee accurate needle placement when performing knee injections. Patients can be sure of outstanding care and follow-up, with few out-of-pocket expenses.
