Total Hip Replacement

Total Hip Replacement

The Total Hip Replacement procedure is performed by several Hip Orthopedic Physicians at JOI.  There are several different procedures which can be done.  You should consult with physician to see what is the best procedure for you.

During the surgery, your damaged hip joint is replaced with implants that recreate the ball and socket of a healthy hip. This can reduce pain and restore your hip function. JOI is also the leader in Robotic Total Hip Replacements.  There are many different innovative procedures to replace your hip. Talk to one of our orthopedic hip replacement doctors about the options you have. Please call 904-JOI-2000 to schedule an appointment.

Minimum incision total hip replacement continues to be a popular choice for some patients.  Minimal incision total hips may lead to less scarring, smaller incisions, less blood loss, and earlier rehabilitation than traditional total hip replacement. Both total hips and total knees demand precision in the implementation, and not all patients are candidates for this type of surgery. Those who are significantly overweight with a high BMI or have severe deformities of either the hip or knee are not candidates for minimal incision type surgery.
