Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon do?
A Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon is a Orthopaedics physician with focused training in total and partial joint replacement surgery, primarily of the hip and knee. After completing Orthopaedics residency, they pursue additional fellowship training so they can manage cases that fall outside what a general orthopaedic surgeon typically handles day to day.
What conditions does a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon treat?
A Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon commonly treats knee osteoarthritis, hip osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis affecting the joints, avascular necrosis, and revision joint replacement. Many also see closely related conditions within Orthopaedics, particularly when a case is complex, atypical, or has not responded to first-line care from a general orthopaedic surgeon.
When should I see a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon?
Consider seeing a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon when joint pain limits your daily activities and conservative treatments are no longer sufficient, when a primary care clinician or general orthopaedic surgeon suggests a focused evaluation, or when you want a second opinion from a physician whose practice is concentrated on this exact area. Patients often reach a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon through referral, but you can also seek one directly.
How is a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon different from a general orthopaedic surgeon?
Both are board-eligible orthopaedic surgeons, but a Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeon has additional fellowship training and a practice that focuses on total and partial joint replacement surgery, primarily of the hip and knee. General orthopaedic surgeons treat a broad range of Orthopaedics concerns; Joint Replacement orthopaedic surgeons concentrate on the harder or more specific cases within that range, and tend to see a higher volume of patients with knee osteoarthritis, hip osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis affecting the joints, avascular necrosis, and revision joint replacement.
