Advanced Joint Replacement Solutions
Our orthopedic surgeons specialize in total joint replacement of the hips, knees and shoulders - helping bring relief to those suffering with severe arthritis and other degenerative joint diseases.
In addition to performing traditional orthopedic procedures, these specialists use minimally invasive techniques, which often allow for better precision, with less incision. That includes anterior approach hip replacement surgery, a significantly less invasive alternative to traditional solutions.
During the anterior approach, the surgeon reaches the hip joint from the front, as opposed to the lateral (side) or posterior (back). This way, the hip can be replaced without disturbing surrounding muscles - instead, simply working between them.
Immediately following surgery, patients can often bend their hip freely and bear full weight when comfortable, resulting in a more rapid return to normal function. Other potential benefits include:
- Reduced hip pain
- Reduced tissue healing required
- Reduced risk of dislocation and other complications
- Shorter hospital stay
- Quicker return to the life you love
Care for Every Condition
We specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions affecting the hips, knees, spine, shoulders, hands, wrists and ankles.
Advanced imaging technologies - including DEXA scanning for osteoporosis, 3D CT Angiography (CTA) and more - help these specialists pinpoint the issue and get you on the fast track to treatment.
In addition to joint replacement, specialties include:
- Hand & Wrist Care: Whether your condition is common or complex, the surgeons, at Mesa View Regional Hospital, have the skilled hands to help heal yours. When non-invasive options fail to relieve your pain, they use minimally invasive techniques whenever possible, including endoscopic carpal tunnel release. This procedure uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera attached (endoscope), which your surgeon guides through a small incision in the wrist to see and treat the issue. Because endoscopy doesn't require a large open incision, it often allows for less pain and scarring and a faster recovery than traditional procedures.
- Fracture Treatment: Our ER provides around-the-clock care for broken bones and other traumatic orthopedic injuries. Once the fracture has been stabilized, we focus on re-strengthening the bone, with treatment that may include additional surgery, braces or orthopedics, and/or physical therapy.
- Sports Medicine: If an injury has you sidelined or playing or pain, team up with a sports medicine specialist on the medical staff. These physicians help athletes and weekend warriors recover from injuries like tendon and ligament tears, usually performing the repairs arthroscopically. Using just a few small incisions, these minimally invasive techniques often offer less pain and help speed healing to get you back in the game as quickly and safely as possible.
