TOTAL JOINT REPLACEMENT —
Less Invasive. Faster Recovery.
Total Joint Replacement…
Until recently, it was a risky and complicated surgery, used only in the most extreme cases. Patients faced
a slow recovery period, limited use of the replaced joint, and even failure of the implanted hardware.
Joint replacement today is very different.
The Methodist Bone & Joint Center’s comprehensive joint replacement program offers patients a wide
range of services to help navigate their road to recovery — from presurgical classes to postsurgical
rehabilitation. Our surgeons stand at the forefront of orthopedic medicine, performing more hip and knee
replacement and revision surgeries than any other hospital in Texas. With an emphasis on minimizing
postoperative pain, they use less invasive methods to reduce the number of tendons and ligaments
affected during surgery, decreasing recovery time after joint implantation.
In just a few short days, patients are back on their feet and reclaiming their lives.
