Orthopedic care

Orthopedists are doctors who take care of the entire musculoskeletal system. They diagnose and treat conditions such sprains, strains, broken bones, arthritis and osteoporosis. Some of the treatments they offer include recommending lifestyle changes, applying casts and performing surgeries, such as ligament repairs or total joint replacements.

Hip replacement surgery: anterior approach

We offer a minimally invasive alternative to traditional hip replacement surgery. The anterior approach to hip replacement allows your surgeon to replace the hip joint without detaching any muscles or tendons from the bone.

Compared to traditional surgery, this minimally invasive procedure offers benefits such as:

  • Faster recovery and rehabilitation
  • Less postoperative pain
  • Less risk of dislocation
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Smaller incision

Preoperative joint replacement surgery class

If you are undergoing joint replacement surgery, we offer a weekly preoperative class. This class allows you to learn more about your upcoming hip or knee replacement procedure. It will also give you the opportunity to discuss any concerns or questions you may have about your surgery with our licensed clinicians.
