St. Margaret’s Orthopedic specialists can treat a variety of orthopedic concerns to get you back to living a full, active life.

Our skilled orthopedists are redefining excellence with an unprecedented program for joint replacement and use of the area’s most advanced technology and techniques, including total hip replacements, as well as, partial and total knee replacements using Mako by Stryker. We are also proud to offer state of the art treatment for the musculoskeletal system, which includes bones, joints, ligaments, muscles and nerves.

Our team of four orthopedic surgeons offer care with a personalized approach. Our philosophy is to be patient-centered above all else. In other words, our decisions and care are driven by what’s right or best for the interests of each unique patient. Our doctors, Paul Perona, MD, Robert Mitchell, DO, Michael Shin, MD and Connor Kasik, DO, are focused on getting patients back to feeling themselves and doing the things they love, whether that be being able to go for walks again, enjoy playing golf, getting back to playing a sport or some other activity. 

Our orthopedic services are offered at three convenient locations in the Illinois Valley. Dr. Perona sees patients on the second floor of our Spring Valley hospital (St. Margaret’s Health – Spring Valley) in our Family Orthopedics Center. Also located inside our Spring Valley hospital, on the third floor, is Dr. Shin’s office, Valley Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. Last, but not least, both Dr. Mitchell and Dr. Kasik are located in our Illinois Valley Orthopedics location, which is located in the Medical Building just West of our Peru Hospital, St. Margaret’s Health – Peru.

No matter which orthopedic doctor or location you choose, know you’re in good hands!
