The Surgical Center of the Treasure Coast

Total Knee and Hip Replacement Program

Outpatient joint replacement surgery means faster recovery and less pain.

Knowing What to Expect

Preparing for surgery can feel overwhelming or scary if you don’t know what to expect. You may have some unanswered questions and worries that make you feel this way. Knowing what to expect will help you feel less nervous and more in control.

The Surgical Center of the Treasure Coast offers advanced total knee and hip replacement, as well as partial knee replacement. Now, patients can regain mobility and independence faster than ever before.

We have invested significant time and resources to make The Surgical Center of the Treasure Coast Total Knee and Hip Replacement Program the standard for other orthopedic surgery programs to follow. Our success in performing total and partial joint replacement is based on several factors:

Surgical excellence:
Our board-certified and nationally recognized orthopedic specialists are highly trained and experienced in leading edge treatment options, including advanced muscle sparing techniques.

Team approach:
The physicians, anesthesiologists, nurses, home health nurses, therapists and staff work together to ensure seamless transitions, from admission in the morning to discharge by the end of the day.
Recovery is generally faster and patients experience less pain in the days following the procedure. The Surgical Center of the Treasure Coast utilizes fellowship trained anesthesiologists who provide specialized regional blocks for post operative pain.

Individualized care:
With a one-to-one nurse/patient ratio, patients receive all the education, comfort and encouragement needed to manage their own care from home.

Faster recovery:
We get patients up and moving within a few hours after surgery is over. Our nurses have been specially trained on exercises and restrictions specific to knee and hip replacements as well as safe walking, climbing stairs and the use of ambulatory aids.
Prearranged post-care. During your pre-op clinic visit, approximately two weeks before surgery, your nurse will confirm that everything you’re going to need—from admission through discharge and the immediate post-op period at home—is in place. If needed, we will coordinate with your surgeon’s office and physical therapist so you don’t have to worry about anything but arriving on time and recovering.

New, muscle sparing total joint replacement procedure:
We offer a new and less invasive way to replace your hip and knee.  We can do the procedure without cutting any muscle. This means you’ll have healthy muscle to support your new hip or knee joint immediately after surgery.

Our muscle sparing offers our hip and knee patients multiple benefits:

  • Shorter time in surgery
  • Faster recovery time
  • Less pain
  • Reducing your time in the hospital

With outpatient knee and hip joint replacement, you can enjoy recovering in the comfort, safety and familiarity of your own home, free of hospital germs and annoying light and noise.

Leading edge arthroscopic procedures
When you don’t need total joint replacement, The Surgical Center of the Treasure Coast also offers knee and hip arthroscopy to repair damaged ligaments or cartilage.
