Joint Replacement Surgery
When arthritis or severe joint damage causes chronic pain that limits your daily life—like keeping you awake at night or preventing you from walking comfortably—joint replacement surgery can be a life-changing solution. Using state-of-the-art materials and precise surgical techniques, we replace the damaged joint surfaces to eliminate pain and restore smooth, natural movement.
Common Symptoms
- Severe joint pain that limits everyday activities (walking, dressing)
- Pain that continues even while resting, day or night
- Chronic inflammation and swelling that does not improve with rest or medications
- Bowing in or out of the leg (in cases of severe knee arthritis)
- Inadequate pain relief from physical therapy, injections, and pain medications
Treatment Options
- Total Knee Replacement (TKR)
- Total Shoulder Replacement or Reverse Shoulder Replacement
- Partial joint replacement (for localized arthritis)
- Custom-tailored surgical planning using 3D imaging
- Advanced pain management protocols for a comfortable recovery
Diagnosis
Determining if you need a joint replacement involves a detailed discussion about how your pain affects your quality of life. We will review your medical history, perform a physical exam, and use advanced X-rays to assess the degree of "bone-on-bone" cartilage loss.
Management & Recovery
Modern joint replacements focus on "rapid recovery." In many cases, patients are walking on the same day as their surgery. We coordinate closely with a physical therapy team to ensure you regain your strength and range of motion safely. Your new joint is designed to give you decades of pain-free activity.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a joint replacement last?
Modern joint replacements are highly durable. With proper care and activity modification, the vast majority of joint replacements last 15 to 20 years, and many last a lifetime.
When is the right time to get a joint replacement?
The right time is when your joint pain is significantly reducing your quality of life, and non-surgical treatments are no longer providing adequate relief. It is a decision we will make together based on your personal goals.
