Litke and Dr. John T. Wey, L&W Orthopaedics provides solutions for most orthopaedic problems involving the hip, knee, shoulder, foot, and ankle.

Dr. Litke provides a wide range of general orthopaedic and sports medicine services in addition to specializing in joint replacement, specifically knees, shoulders, and hips, and uses cutting-edge technology to help her restore function to severely damaged joints. The Mako™ system’s technology allows Dr. Litke to combine advanced 3D imaging with specialized software to come up with individualized preoperative plans for each patient. During her procedures, a robotic arm aids her in removing diseased bone and cartilage, preserving healthy bone, and ensuring accurate placement of joint implants.
