Joint Replacement

Joint pain can be one of the most debilitating issues you can experience, and it lingers until you can seek a doctor and treatment plan. While joint replacement may offer the best long-term solution, there are many short-term treatments available to help relieve joint pain. For example, sustainable lifestyle changes, such as exercise or physical therapy, are needed to get started on finding relief from joint pain. However, if everyday movement becomes impossible on your own, it may be time to discuss knee replacement surgery. 

People with difficulty walking or getting dressed may benefit from joint replacement surgery. In cases of advanced joint disease, knee replacement surgery may also be recommended. Our experienced and highly skilled orthopedic team at Victoria Orthopedic Center is here to help those in need with various joint conditions. We utilize the latest technologies and cutting-edge techniques to minimize pain and promote faster recovery for our patients. On top of that, we offer a range of physical therapy treatments to help patients maximize their Return on Investment (ROI) following surgery. Our skilled orthopedics professionals complement patient services with comfort, care, and understanding by working together. Our goal is to enable patients to return to an active lifestyle while improving their quality of life overall.
