Orthopaedic health is essential for maintaining an active and fulfilling lifestyle. Whether you're an athlete striving for peak performance or an everyday individual seeking pain-free movement, prioritizing orthopaedic health is vital for overall well-being.

Orthopaedic and Spine Center of the Rockies (OCR) champions musculoskeletal wellness, encompassing bones, joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons. Disruption or injury to these components can significantly affect mobility, function and quality of life.

For over fifty years, OCR has been dedicated to providing specialty-focused care. The OCR team comprises more than 45 specialists who provide comprehensive care across six medical campuses in Greeley, Fort Collins, Loveland, Longmont, Lafayette and Westminster. Having served the Greeley community for over eight years, OCR is excited to announce their permanent home in April 2024, located at 1926 61st Avenue, where OCR will continue investing in the health and well-being of our community.

OCR believes every patient has the potential to be a champion in their recovery journey. OCR's passionate team is dedicated to accelerating treatment and achieving optimal recovery for patients of all ages, enabling them to return to active lifestyles confidently. Prevention is paramount, with exercise routines incorporating strength training, flexibility exercises and cardiovascular activities maintaining muscle strength, joint flexibility and bone density. Adopting proper body mechanics and ergonomic practices can reduce the risk of overuse injuries and musculoskeletal strain in everyday activities.
