Outpatient Joint Replacement

OUTPATIENT JOINT REPLACEMENT OVERVIEW

As modern medicine has advanced, people are able to live longer and healthier lives, and joint pain from hip and knee arthritis shouldn’t hold anyone back from leading their active lifestyles. Sometimes, nonsurgical management is not enough to achieve adequate relief. This is where a hip or knee joint replacement can greatly improve quality of life, restore mobility, and decrease discomfort from arthritis.

With a hip or knee joint replacement, the portions of arthritis are removed and replaced with a hip or knee implant to allow for smooth, pain-free movement.
