Innovative Orthopedic Services
We want to see you doing what you love — whether it’s playing a sport, planting a garden or using your computer. That’s why we offer top-notch orthopedic care delivered by nationally recognized experts to keep you active and moving.
Our wide range of treatment options include everything from muscle-strain and fracture care to total joint replacement surgery. In addition, we work to promote an attitude of healthiness and eliminate negative frames of mind. We focus on wellness and motivating our patients to an independent state as quickly as possible.
Joint replacement has allowed hundreds of thousands of people with arthritis worldwide to get back on their feet and enjoy their life again.
Before surgery, you will attend a training session where you will view a video and receive information on what to expect before, during, and after your joint replacement surgery. You are strongly encouraged to have a friend or family member who will act as a coach as you go through the joint replacement process, beginning with the training session and continuing through your recovery once you get home. After leaving the hospital you will need someone at home to assist with dressing, getting meals, and other everyday activities for the first couple of weeks.
Instead of wearing hospital gowns, on the second day after surgery you may wear your own clothes. A block of rooms has been reserved for joint replacement patients to enable you to be in a supportive setting with other patients undergoing similar surgeries. You will participate in planned exercise therapy, both individually and as a group, to gain your mobility and independence.
Additionally, the staff at MHP will seek to provide you with optimal pain control — around-the-clock pain management to achieve steady levels, with minimal to no ups and downs.
All of these steps are designed to help you feel more in control of your recovery.
