Frank Pompo, MD, is now offering the procedure at Litchfield’s surgery center in Torrington, Conn., using the CORI Surgical System.

The surgical system allows physicians to accurately place an implant using a customized surgical plan created with a 3D model of the patient’s knee.

Patients who undergo the procedure can experience a fast recovery time, enhanced alignment and balance, and less radiation exposure.

Litchfield Hills Orthopedic Associates was founded in 1950 and has offices in Torrington and Bristol, Conn.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
