OrthoNC: 25 Years of Caring ⋅ A Legacy of Healing & Movement

This year marks a major milestone for OrthoNC, 25 years of dedicated musculoskeletal care for patients and communities across the Triangle and beyond.

A Journey Rooted in Purpose

Since opening our doors in 2000, what began as a small group of passionate orthopaedic specialists has grown into a trusted, comprehensive provider of orthopaedic care, anchored in expertise, innovation, and patient-first service. From sports medicine to joint replacement, spine, hand and wrist, urgent care, physical and occupational therapy, and more, our mission has stayed consistent: helping patients move better, feel better, and live stronger.

At our core, we care. And for 25 years, that care has translated into thousands of patients restored to activity, mobility, and everyday life.

Whether it’s helping a weekend warrior return to the game, a parent pick up their child pain-free, or a grandparent walk without discomfort, these are the moments that define us.

Built on Commitment, Strengthened by Community

Over the last quarter-century:

We’ve expanded services, locations, and specialities to meet the evolving needs of the community.

We’ve grown from a humble practice into a leading orthopaedic care provider in the region.

We’ve welcomed thousands of patients into our care, helping them heal, recover, and thrive.

Through every step of this journey, one thing has remained constant: our commitment to exceptional care and compassionate service.

Stories that Inspire Us Every Day

What makes our 25-year legacy truly meaningful is the people we serve. Our patients teach us what real healing looks like, not just in clinic results, but in the stories of daily life renewed.

“Dr. Galland and PA Beth McAvoy consistently provide exceptional orthopedic care that exceeds my expectations. Two shoulder rotator cuff repairs and a knee meniscus repair provided me with the opportunity to return to the sports I love and leverage for both fitness and a high quality of life. From the initial consultation through recovery, their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were evident at every step.

The surgical procedures were explained thoroughly, and I felt confident knowing I was in the hands of a highly skilled specialist. Post-surgery, Dr. Galland and PA Beth McAvoy provided outstanding follow-up care, ensuring my recovery was smooth and successful.

Thanks to Dr. Galland and OrthoNC, I have regained full mobility and returned to my active lifestyle. I would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking advanced orthopedic treatment delivered with compassion and excellence.”

Looking Forward — The Next Chapter

As we celebrate this milestone, we also look to the future with excitement and determination. Growth continues, new clinics, expanded services, cutting-edge treatments, and a renewed commitment to elevating patient care across the region.

To every patient who has trusted us with your health, every family member who supported recovery, and every team member who delivered care with heart, thank you for being part of our story.

Here’s to the next 25 years of helping our community move better, feel better, and live stronger.

Dr. Watson is an excellent choice for all of your orthopedic needs. Most importantly, he is a great listener and involves you in the treatment process. His knowledge of orthopedics and even beyond his specialty is superior. He makes appropriate referrals when needed. I have never felt more confident being under a doctors care.

In the last 4 weeks ,Dr Rion is the 4th doctor I have seen for this same problem and the only who has , in my opinion has taken the step to get to the root of my injury, which has gotten increasingly painful and unbearable over the last few weeks. GOOD JOB DOC.
