L. SCOTT LEVIN: Penn is creating new methods for the delivery of musculoskeletal care for the future, today. That's why we built the Penn Musculoskeletal Center.

The Penn Musculoskeletal Center is unique in the region. It's been designed so doctors can work together in one location to provide the very best care for the patient. For example, a patient with hand and wrist pain can come to the center, see a physician, have an x-ray, engage a therapist, have laboratory studies if needed, and come out with a treatment plan in one visit.

What's unique about Penn's Musculoskeletal Center is that we take a total body perspective. We don't only look just at the joint or the bone. We look at the entire person. We're one of the oldest orthopedic departments in the country, but the most modern in terms of our vision of care for people with bone and joint pain.

There's a better way to look at how the human body moves, and only Penn is putting it in motion.

L. Scott Levin, MD, FACS, Chair, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Penn Medicine, offers a summary of the programs, clinical services and patient-oriented design of the new Penn Musculoskeletal Center.  Unique in the region, the Musculoskeletal Center combines specialists from orthopaedics, rheumatology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, pain medicine, and musculoskeletal radiology all working together as one. The Center incorporates every facet of musculoskeletal care in a single location—from advanced diagnostic services to medical and surgical interventions and innovative rehabilitative therapies.
