Total Joint Replacement

A woman walking with a walker assisted by a loved one.

Hip and knee pain can severely limit your activities and affect your quality of life. Our physicians work hand in hand with our patients to determine the treatment that is right for them.

For those with hip and knee pain, we offer conservative treatment options. If the conservative options aren't providing the relief needed, surgical options will be discussed. Our surgeons are fellowship trained in adult reconstructive orthopedic surgery and are recognized for their achievements in clinical research, education and leadership in the field of orthopedic surgery. Our goal is to ease your pain and keep you moving.

Gold badge labeled "DNV Healthcare Accreditation Services – Advanced Certification: Hip & Knee Replacement – Quality & Patient Safety."

Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center has received Advanced Hip & Knee Replacement Certification (AHKRC) from DNV Healthcare. This certification recognizes excellence in orthopedic surgery, including diagnostic services, surgical services, and therapies related to hip and knee replacement care. The certification requirements are based on guidelines from leading orthopedic and surgical organizations, including the ERAS® Society, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons.
