Our specialized orthopedic program is focused on helping individuals regain strength, mobility, and confidence following injury or surgery.

We’ve built a comprehensive orthopedic rehabilitation program to support individuals recovering from joint replacements, foot and ankle surgery, traumatic injury and other musculoskeletal challenges.

Personalized, Expert-Led Recovery

Dr. Ricardo L. Cook, MD
Orthopedic Surgeon

Our orthopedic program is led by orthopedic surgeon Dr. Ricardo L. Cook, MD, who brings his expertise in foot & ankle reconstruction, joint trauma, diabetic foot care and peripheral nerve conditions to the Carriage Hill team.

From the moment you arrive, Dr. Cook and our interdisciplinary staff—including physiatrists, orthopedic-trained therapists and specially-trained nursing professionals—work together to create your individualized care plan.

Whether you’re recovering from hip or knee surgery, tendon repair, or complex trauma, our team supports you every step of the way.

Program Highlights

On-site Orthopedic Expertise
& Continuous Therapy Access

Dr. Cook and our rehabilitation specialists deliver daily oversight, with physical and occupational therapy available seven days a week to keep momentum going.

Evidence-Based
Recovery Protocols

From early mobilization and pain control through functional strengthening, gait training, balance re-education and safe discharge preparation, our protocols are designed for maximum recovery efficiency.

Seamless Integration with
Specialty Services

Because Carriage Hill Bethesda offers additional specialty programs such as renal care with peritoneal dialysis, cardiac rehabilitation and wound care, you benefit from coordinated, holistic care even if underlying medical concerns arise.

Return-Home
Success Focus

Our goal isn’t just to treat your immediate condition, but to help you regain independence, reduce re-hospitalization risk and return home stronger, with a supportive plan in place.

Comfortable, Healing-
Focused Environment

With private rooms, a “Walk to Dine” dining experience, concierge-style service and a setting designed for dignity and healing, we believe the setting matters just as much as the clinical expertise.
