Joint Replacement

Our surgeons perform joint replacement surgeries for knees, hips and shoulders. Following joint replacement surgery, most patients are able to resume previous daily activities with vastly improved comfort levels and ease of movement.
 
Surface replacement surgery is sometimes recommended for younger, more physically active patients. Other alternatives to total joint replacement include Osteotomy, Arthroplasty and Arthrodesis.

Our surgeons are highly successful at helping patients whose knee, hip or shoulder problems compromise their lifestyles. Proper treatment can help such patients return to active, independent ways of life. Joint replacement surgery can be an effective treatment for various conditions, including:

• Arthritis (Rheumatoid, Gouty or Osteoarthritis)
• Arthritis from fractures
• Avascular Necrosis
• Hip fractures
• Infectious joint disease
• Tumors

Sophisticated diagnostic imaging and specialized surgical techniques help to reduce pain, shorten recovery time and accelerate rehabilitation. If necessary, we provide case managers to help coordinate post-operative care, including rehabilitation services.
