Joint Replacement

Joint replacement surgery has become a very successful procedure for the treatment of severe arthritis.

It involves the removal of the worn cartilage, bone spurs, and damaged tissue from both sides of the joint, followed by replacement with metal and plastic components that look and move much like your normal joint.

Joint replacements are some of the most impactful surgeries you can have. They can return you to the life you want to live. They are hailed as technological miracles that have come a long way since their introduction over 50 years ago. Recovery times are shorter, the replacements last longer, and the hospital stay has shortened to outpatient same-day surgery in many cases.
