Prescott, Arizona-based Yavapai Regional Medical Center (YRMC) is growing.
Previously known as Yavapai Regional Medical Center PhysicianCare, Yavapai Regional Medical Group, Orthopedic Surgical Services will be led by Francisco Jaume, D.O., at its temporary location in Prescott Valley, Arizona. An orthopedic surgeon with over 28 years of experience, Dr. Jaume will act as lead orthopedist.
Yavapai Regional Medical Group is a multispecialty medical practice which has an impressive network of 25 primary and specialty clinics. As lead orthopedist, Dr. Jaume is responsible for driving development of Yavapai Regional Medical Group, Orthopedic Surgical Services. The new medical practice will address the orthopedic needs of Yavapai County’s 270,000 residents, which is located about 100 miles northwest of Phoenix.
Dr. Jaume is “Looking forward to building an orthopedic group from the ground up. Our goal is to provide the highest quality care to patients.”
Dr. Jaume continued, “We’ll achieve this through a talented team of orthopedic surgeons, registered nurses and other healthcare professionals who will join me in delivering the latest in orthopedic surgical services.”
Dr. Jaume is board certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Orthopedic Medicine. For the past 16 years he has served patients in Arizona’s “Quad-City” area—Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and Dewey/Humboldt.
Dr. Jaume received his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in Stratford, New Jersey. He then completed an orthopedic surgical residency at the College of Osteopathic Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dr. Jaume also served in the United States Marine Corps and the United States Air Force Reserve.
Dr. Jaume’s expertise covers a wide range of orthopedic specialties including knee arthroscopy, knee replacement, hip replacement, carpal tunnel release, press-fit total knee replacement, fracture care (upper and lower extremities), joint injections, rotator cuff repair, Achilles tendon repair, and flexor and extensor tendon repair of the hand.
I had the honor of being treated by Dr. Francisco Jaume on two separate occasions. The first occasion was in January, 2007, when I was referred to Dr. Jaume for a fractured right wrist. The second occasion was December 1, 2020, in the ED of YRMC, where I was diagnosed with a fractured left hip.
On both occasions, Dr. Jaume was thorough as he examined my radiology images. He took the time to explain the issues regarding each fracture and he developed efficient treatment plans that would directly address the needed repairs. Dr. Jaume explained each surgery in terms that I could understand and he confidently shared that I would regain my mobility in both my right wrist and my left hip—which is exactly what happened!
I decidedly recommend Dr. Jaume as my Orthopedic Surgeon of Choice because of his exceptionally developed skills in all of the areas of orthopedic surgery! He greets each patient with care, explains his surgical approach in ways that patients can understand, schedules his surgeries when they are most needed, and applies his years of experience and expertise to address the specific surgical needs of each patient on whom he is operating!
