In the rapidly evolving field of orthopedic care, Tyrance Orthopedics & Sports Medicine in Florida stands out by championing a holistic approach to patient care. Specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, including trauma, arthritis, and sports injuries, the clinic prioritizes comprehensive care that extends beyond the operating room.
Founder Dr. Patrick Tyrance, Jr., MD, MBA, recognizes that traditional orthopedic practices often focus narrowly on surgical interventions. “The healthcare system is set up so that surgeons believe their value is limited to the time of surgery, a singular and short episode in the patient’s care journey,” Dr. Tyrance explains. By partnering with organizations like Avastar™ Health Systems, the clinic aims to create multiple touch points throughout the patient journey, enhancing both experience and outcomes.
While embracing technological advancements, Tyrance Orthopedics understands that these must be part of a broader context. “Healthcare providers face persistent challenges,” notes Dr. Tyrance, who took a year away from surgery to complete business school and address personal challenges, including burnout and the death of his father. This period led him to return to medicine with a renewed focus on a holistic approach to orthopedics.
By incorporating regenerative therapies and optimal diets, Dr. Tyrance reduces recovery times and enhances outcomes. “I aim to help patients remain active, participating in activities they enjoy, while preventing further injury and addressing their specific concerns,” he says. His holistic approach includes recommending high-dose vitamin D3 with K2, omega-3 and -6 fatty acids, and curcumin for their anti-inflammatory and immuneboosting effects. Cryotherapy is also utilized to manage post-operative pain and inflammation.
Patients often seek out Tyrance Orthopedics after being advised by other doctors to avoid activities they love due to discomfort. Dr. Tyrance’s approach considers lifestyle factors like nutrition and sleep quality, minimizing the use of anti-inflammatory medications, including steroids. Understanding that successful outcomes depend on more than just diagnosis and technique, Dr. Tyrance employs regenerative therapies such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), bone marrow aspirate, and shockwave therapy. Plant-based injectables are used as alternatives to corticosteroids, which can be harmful with repeated use.

For complex cases like ACL reconstructions, Dr. Tyrance prefers allografts over autografts, providing effective repair without harvesting tissue from the patient. His innovative treatments also support equestrian sports, combining shockwave therapy with Traumeel injectables for conditions like bursitis and shoulder and knee injuries.
At Tyrance Orthopedics, quality of care is paramount. Personalized treatment plans ensure each patient receives tailored attention. “As orthopedics evolves, my expertise in functional medicine and advanced treatments will continue to set new care standards,” says Dr. Tyrance.
