When surgery is indicated, we use the most advanced techniques to remove a faulty hip joint and replace it with prosthetic implant that functions very near that of a natural hip. This procedure is perfect for patients who are suffering from degenerative diseases of the hip such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, but it may also be an option for patients who have a broken hip or other trauma to the hip joint.
At Medical City Hip & Knee Specialists, we use the latest in imaging technology to get detailed views of the affected joint in order to provide a comprehensive diagnosis and efficient treatment plan chosen from a wide variety of treatment options. In addition, our hip replacement procedures utilize minimally invasive total hip replacement techniques designed to shorten healing time and reduce pain. Further, at Medical City Hip & Knee Specialists, Dr. Hopkins and his team use a rapid recovery program that has been customized using multiple avenues of managing postoperative pain allowing the patients to have less pain after surgery and faster recovery and return to wellness.
Our Hip Replacement Services Include:
- Total Hip Replacement
- Partial Hip Replacement
- Hip Resurfacing
- Revision Hip Replacement
If you’ve had hip surgery in the past and you’re still experiencing pain or difficulty walking, you might also be a good candidate for revision hip replacement. Our hip surgeon, Dr. Eldon Hopkins, will evaluate the condition of your current hip implant and make a recommendation. Hip revision involves corrective surgery to replace improperly aligned or loose implants or make adjustments to improper fittings.
