Camber Joint Institute
Services
Camber brings complementary expertise together so patients can discuss nonsurgical, interventional, and surgical options within one coordinated care plan. These are areas of care, not steps every patient must complete. Recommendations depend on your diagnosis, symptoms, prior treatment, overall health, and goals. Surgical evaluation may be appropriate without trying every nonsurgical option first.

Four Areas of Joint Care
Joint care depends on your condition, goals and previous treatment. Camber organizes its services into four areas of care; your consultation determines which options to consider.
You do not need to choose a procedure before contacting Camber. Start with a consultation to discuss your options.
Camber brings regenerative and orthobiologic therapies, image-guided interventions, and orthopedic surgical expertise together within one team. This allows patients to consider a broader range of options and receive recommendations based on their condition, goals, and stage of joint disease.
Why this matters in Salt Lake City
Many practices are built around a particular type of treatment, whether nonsurgical, interventional, or surgical. Camber brings regenerative and orthobiologic care, image-guided interventions, and orthopedic surgical expertise together within one team, allowing treatment decisions to consider a broader range of options rather than a single approach.
A
Regenerative Therapies
Individualized Evaluation
At Camber, regenerative and orthobiologic care is a shared team offering, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Our clinicians work together to discuss appropriate options, their evidence, benefits, risks, and limitations. Procedures are performed by the appropriate clinician according to their training, clinical privileges, and scope of practice.
Where it sits: one of four areas of joint care. The appropriate approach depends on your evaluation, not a required sequence.
B
Interventional Solutions
Image-Guided · Minimally Invasive
Genicular artery embolization (GAE) — an image-guided option for knee osteoarthritis in appropriately selected patients. Aaron Frodsham, MD, performs GAE. Your clinical evaluation guides whether an interventional or surgical approach is appropriate.
Where it fits: GAE may improve knee osteoarthritis pain and function in appropriately selected patients. It does not restore damaged cartilage or guarantee that replacement can be avoided.

C
Joint Preservation Surgery
Preserve the Joint When Possible
Discuss joint-preservation options with Camber’s orthopedic surgeon during consultation.
Where it fits: joint-preserving surgery may be appropriate for selected joint problems. A surgical evaluation can be considered without completing every nonsurgical treatment.
D
Joint Replacement
Advanced Surgical Reconstruction
Discuss knee and hip replacement options with Bruce G. Evans, MD, Camber’s orthopedic surgeon.
Where it fits: replacement may be appropriate when joint damage, pain, and functional limitations warrant it. The decision depends on individual evaluation, not a required sequence.

Not Sure Where You Fit? That’s Normal.
You do not need to know which treatment you need. Call to arrange a consultation for joint, spine, sports-injury, or tendon concerns. Our GAE quiz is specific to knee osteoarthritis and does not diagnose or determine eligibility.
