About Adam C. Young, MD
Illinois Bone & Joint Institute (IBJI), headquartered near the Chicago Loop in Des Plaines, Illinois, stands as the largest independent orthopedic group practice in Illinois, having been founded in October 1991. Serving both northern Illinois and northwest Indiana, the organization is composed of over 150 skilled physicians across every orthopedic specialty, working collaboratively to help patients 'Move Better, Live Better' across more than 100 locations. The integrated care model at IBJI encompasses a full spectrum of orthopedic services, ranging from advanced diagnostic imaging, including MRI and CT scans, to non-surgical and surgical treatment plans. They emphasize patient-centric care, frequently beginning with conservative approaches like physical therapy, occupational therapy, pain management, and specialized wellness programs like OrthoHealth. For necessary surgical interventions, their orthopedic surgeons utilize state-of-the-art techniques such as computer mapping and robotically-assisted surgery for procedures like total joint reconstruction. IBJI offers comprehensive support beyond the operating room through services like Orthopedic Rehabilitation and the Health Performance Institute (HPI) for fitness and injury prevention, exemplified by their Return to Sport Phase IV program. Specific non-surgical approaches relevant to regenerative medicine are highlighted through their treatment of various injuries, such as using Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for conditions like rotator cuff tears and meniscus tears. With a strong commitment to timely and efficient care, IBJI positions itself as a leading provider of integrated musculoskeletal patient care services in their region.
