Total Hip Replacement

Blue

A Reliable Procedure for Advanced Hip Arthritis & Chronic Joint Pain

​

A total hip replacement, also called a total hip arthroplasty, is a highly successful surgical procedure that relieves hip pain, restores mobility, and improves overall quality of life when arthritis or joint damage becomes severe. During surgery, the damaged ball-and-socket portions of the hip joint are removed and replaced with durable metal, ceramic, and medical-grade polyethylene implants designed to provide smooth, pain-free movement.

​

In a total hip replacement, you keep all of your own tendons, ligaments, and muscles. There are many different approaches to the hip, which will be expanded upon in the blog section. The goal of the procedure is to be as minimally invasive as possible, in order to get you on your road to Regain your Mobility to Restore your Life. 

​

​

Who Is Total Hip Replacement For?

​

Total hip replacement is commonly recommended for patients diagnosed with:

  • Osteoarthritis

  • Rheumatoid arthritis

  • Post-traumatic arthritis

  • Avascular necrosis (osteonecrosis)

  • Congenital or developmental hip disorders

​

It is best indicated for individuals who experience:

  • Persistent hip pain during walking, standing, or even sitting

  • Loss of mobility and decreased range of motion

  • Pain that disrupts sleep or rest

  • Difficulty with daily activities, including bending, dressing, or climbing stairs

  • Failure of conservative treatments, such as medications, therapy, injections, or assistive devices

​

Most importantly, if your hip pain is impacting your activities and quality of life, then hip replacement may be an option for you.

Benefits of Total Hip Replacement

​

Most patients experience:

  • Significant pain reduction

  • Improved hip mobility and stride

  • Enhanced joint stability

  • Ability to return to low-impact activities

  • Long-term improvements in function and lifestyle

  • ​

Modern hip implants are engineered for longevity, with many lasting 25-30 years or more, depending on patient factors and implant technology.

​

​

Is Total Hip Replacement Right For You?

​

  • Is your hip pain affecting your daily activities and quality of life?

  • Have you tried non-surgical treatments and they do not control your pain or dysfunction?

  • Are you unable to maintain an active lifestyle to your desire due to pain or stiffness?

  • Are you motivated to participate in physical therapy and rehabilitation after your surgery?

​

If the answer to most of these questions is "Yes!", then an evaluation and recommendation for your hip would be beneficial to you.
