About Kristopher Avant, DO
Located in Oklahoma City, Southwest Orthopaedic & Reconstructive Specialists (SOS) is a comprehensive orthopedic center that serves Oklahoma City, Yukon, Shawnee and the surrounding region. The practice offers a full spectrum of orthopedic care, ranging from sports medicine and rehabilitation to joint replacement and hand‑wrist surgery, with a dedicated focus on minimally invasive, evidence‑based treatments. SOS embraces a non‑surgical philosophy whenever possible, utilizing advanced interventional pain management such as PRP therapy, epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, RF ablations, and trigger point injections to provide near‑instant relief. The practice also leverages robotic‑assisted surgery for total and partial knee and hip replacements, and offers arthroscopic procedures across the knee, shoulder, elbow and hip to preserve joint function and reduce recovery time. Founded in 1995, the practice has grown to more than nine physicians, ten physician assistants and a support staff of over ninety professionals. Leadership includes CEO Joe Streich and a team of directors overseeing revenue cycle, human resources, finance and compliance. The surgeons are board‑certified specialists, and the plastic surgery team has earned the American Medical Association’s Physician’s Recognition Award annually since 1993, underscoring SOS’s commitment to clinical excellence and patient‑centered care.
