Joint Replacement Surgery

We specialize in joint replacement surgery (hips and knees) using the latest techniques to get you back on your feet. You’ll have less pain and scarring - and a shorter recovery time - with our minimally-invasive surgical options.

Hip Replacements

Total hip replacement techniques include the minimally-invasive Direct Anterior Approach, as well as hip revisions for patients with implants that have failed.

Knee Replacements

Total Knee Replacements including the Conformis Knee, Stryker, and Smith & Nephew knee systems. We also offer partial knee replacements and knee revisions for patients with implants that have failed. 

All of our joint replacement surgeries take place at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital’s Joint Replacement Center with a team of highly-dedicated physicians, nurses, physical therapists and occupational therapists, who are all focused on getting you back to doing what you love to do. Wentworth-Douglass is a Magnet®-recognized hospital for its nursing excellence and superior patient care. 

Everything is seamlessly coordinated with your best health in mind. You will have access to the hospital’s Surgical Optimization Center and Prehabilitation classes to help you prepare for a successful surgery and improved overall health.
