    • Hip strengthening and mobility exercises
    • Gait training and movement correction
  • Injection Therapy Corticosteroid or hyaluronic acid injections can provide temporary pain relief and help determine if you're ready for surgical intervention. These treatments can also help optimize your pre-surgical condition.
    • Image-guided corticosteroid injections
    • Viscosupplementation therapy
  • Activity Modification Our specialists help you adapt your activities and exercise routines to reduce hip stress while maintaining fitness. This approach can help delay surgery and improve surgical outcomes when the time comes.

Watch how our fellowship-trained surgeons perform hip resurfacing using the latest minimally invasive techniques

Surgical Hip Procedures

  • Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) The most widely used hip resurfacing system, featuring a metal-on-metal bearing surface. This procedure reshapes and caps the femoral head while replacing the hip socket, preserving more bone than traditional hip replacement.
  • Anterior Approach Hip Resurfacing A muscle-sparing surgical technique that accesses the hip joint from the front, potentially reducing recovery time and improving early mobility. This approach may result in less post-operative pain and faster rehabilitation.
  • Computer-Assisted Hip Resurfacing Advanced surgical navigation technology helps ensure precise implant positioning and optimal biomechanics. This technology-enhanced approach can improve long-term outcomes and reduce the risk of complications.
Star
Studies show that over 95% of hip resurfacing patients return to high-impact activities, with many resuming sports and active lifestyles within 4-6 months.
