Long-established Southern California orthopaedic group associated with Valencia, providing surgical and non-surgical care for bone, joint and spine problems.
Southern California Orthopedic Institute, usually shortened to SCOI, is a large private orthopaedic practice that has been operating since 1976. It treats patients across nine offices in Southern California and also runs its own ambulatory surgery centres, which are day-surgery units where operations are carried out without an overnight stay. This entry covers its services as they relate to Valencia.
The practice covers the full range of orthopaedic care: joint replacement, sports medicine, hand surgery, back, neck and spine care, and treatment of the shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, ankle, foot and wrist. It also provides pain management and physical medicine and rehabilitation, so care can begin with non-surgical measures rather than going straight to an operation. The website describes its doctors as fellowship-trained, meaning they completed extra sub-specialty training after their orthopaedic residency.
One point matters if you have come here looking for regenerative treatment. This practice is often listed in directories in connection with Regenexx, a network offering injections of platelet-rich plasma and bone marrow concentrate. The SCOI website itself does not describe any Regenexx, stem cell or platelet-rich plasma service, does not name a cell source, and does not explain how such injections would be prepared. If regenerative injections are what you want, telephone the practice and ask whether they are offered, at which office, and by which doctor, rather than assuming they are available.
Nothing of this kind is described on the practice's website:
The website describes its doctors as fellowship-trained but does not name individual physicians with their credentials on its main pages. Ask which surgeon you would be seeing when you book.
Southern California Orthopedic Institute has nine offices in Southern California: Beverly Hills, Burbank, two in Bakersfield (Truxtun and Bahamas), Porter Ranch, Simi Valley, Valencia, Van Nuys and Westlake. Valencia is one of the offices named on the website, but no street address or opening hours are published for it, so telephone to confirm the address and appointment times. The practice was founded in 1976 and marked fifty years in 2026. It also operates its own ambulatory surgery centres for day-case operations. The website does not publish opening hours or the languages spoken.
No prices or consultation fees are published on the website. As a mainstream orthopaedic practice, much of its surgical and clinic care is likely to be billed through insurance, so check that your plan is accepted before your first appointment.
