Our Approach to Hip Care

The hip is an incredibly complicated area of the body. And when your hip hurts, it can be a debilitating source of pain that can prevent you from living an active life. Fortunately, recent advancements in hip preservation and surgical techniques make even complex conditions treatable, enabling you to resume daily activities without pain or limitations. If you suffer from any persistent hip or groin pain, it’s best to be proactive and see a hip preservation specialist right away.

Leaders in Hip Replacement Services

When severe hip pain impacts your ability to complete basic tasks, replacing the damaged joint with an artificial implant can help you feel and move better. Today, choosing to have a hip replacement is safer and more successful than ever before. If you meet the criteria, you may even choose to have your procedure performed at an outpatient surgical center and return home the same day. After a minimally invasive surgery in an outpatient setting, you’re able to start moving sooner, which reduces risk of complications and accelerates recovery. Compared to a 3-6-month recovery from a standard inpatient knee replacement, patients who choose minimally invasive outpatient knee replacement typically resume normal activities in as little as 6-8 weeks.

If you’ve been told you need a hip replacement, our experienced team is here for you, offering comprehensive procedures based on your condition, including total hip replacement, anterior hip replacement and revision hip replacement surgery.
