Joint Reconstruction
When cartilage wears down around a joint, bone can be exposed to direct movement against other bones. This can be very painful and make everyday tasks difficult. Our joint reconstruction team can help you feel like you again. Each year, thousands of patients trust our team to perform their surgery. Our goal is to have patients back on their feet as soon as possible. After receiving your joint replacement, it's essential to work with your rehabilitation team and follow the exercises provided by your doctor.
