The Centers for Advanced Orthopaedics - Parkway Division in Hagerstown, Maryland was established in 1996 by Dr. Ralph Salvagno, who retired from surgical practice in May 2017, and the late Dr. Tom Altizer. Both doctors had extensive experience in total joint replacement surgery in their previous practices and felt a strong desire to focus more fully on improving the quality of their patients’ lives through these procedures.
In 2001, Dr. Roberta Rothen joined the practice. She focuses on sports medicine and general orthopaedics. Dr. Alvaro Cabezas, who has extensive experience in joint replacement surgery, joined the practice in 2013. Most recently, in May 2017, the practice welcomed the addition of Dr. Thomas Amalfitano, Dr. Richard Milford, and Dr. Michael Stowell. As well as a focus in sports medicine and general orthopaedics, Dr. Amalfitano brings additional experience in joint replacement surgery. Dr. Milford and Dr. Stowell, both board certified in orthopaedic surgery with a sub-specialty in hand surgery, treat a variety of orthopaedic issues with an emphasis on the treatment of the upper extremity.
We also have an excellent professional staff that offers a team approach. Our nurse practitioner, physician assistants, and physical therapy team will work with you to create a treatment plan that maximizes function and helps you heal as quickly as possible.
In order to better serve our patients, the Centers for Advanced Orthopaedics - Parkway Division has joined The Centers for Advanced Orthopaedics (CAO). As a member of The CAO, we are able to bring our community a higher standard of excellence in patient care by sharing best practices and collaborating with over 25 other orthopaedic offices across the Maryland, Washington D.C., and Northern Virginia area.
