About Lemak Health
Located in Central Alabama, Lemak Health is a center of excellence specializing in orthopedic surgery, sports medicine, and advanced comprehensive care. Founded by the world-renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. Lawrence Lemak, the practice focuses on redefining health and wellness for athletes, active professionals, and youth, adhering to the philosophy that the whole body cannot be healthy unless each part is healthy. The commitment of the practice is centered on improving life after injury, often utilizing convenient, specialized care across multiple locations to enhance the patient experience. Lemak Health leverages a comprehensive, team-based approach to healing, integrating services such as diagnostic imaging, including onsite 1.5 Tesla MRI and digital X-rays, with physical therapy consultations all under one facility. While specialists handle complex procedures like total joint replacements (knee and hip), the practice strongly features non-surgical alternatives. For conditions ranging from osteoarthritis to chronic tendonitis, they utilize advanced regenerative medicine treatments like Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections, which use the patient’s own growth factors to promote healing.
