Embarking on the journey of total joint replacement surgery is akin to setting out on a mission for a revitalized, more mobile you. To ensure you get the most out of this transformative experience, it’s essential to lay the groundwork for optimal results from the start.
Pre-operative Evaluation and Optimization
Before your joint replacement surgery, it’s crucial to lay a solid foundation by fine-tuning your body’s overall health. At Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons, we have created a Surgical Optimization Program to support your pre-operative care.
Dr. Roland Hester, one of our expert surgeons at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons, stresses the importance of this preparation.
“Taking proactive steps to optimize your health and prepare for surgery can significantly improve your chances of a successful outcome,” says Dr. Hester. “By addressing any health concerns, making lifestyle adjustments, and mentally preparing yourself for the journey ahead, you’re laying the foundation for a smooth and successful recovery.”
Advanced Surgical Technique
Crafting your new joint requires precision and expertise. Your surgeon carefully navigates each step, utilizing the best technology available, to ensure every detail aligns perfectly.
“Employing advanced techniques allows us to create a precise blueprint for success, minimizing the risk of any complications,” says Dr. Hester.
Among the advanced techniques/technology used at Southern Orthopaedic Surgeons is the Mako SmartRobotics System.
Post-operative Care and Rehabilitation
After your surgery, post-operative care and rehabilitation play a pivotal role in unlocking your joint’s newfound capabilities. We can provide you with the best physical therapy professionals at our Montgomery, Prattville, and Wetumpka locations to get your recovery moving in the right direction.
“By having a unified team of experienced surgeons and therapists, we can optimize the performance of your new joint,” says Dr. Hester.
