Hip pain & replacement
Hip pain and hip replacement
Stiff, painful hips can make walking, sleeping and getting in and out of the car hard. Our hip team offers everything from targeted injections to anterior-approach hip replacement.
Treating hip pain at every stage
Hip pain may come from arthritis inside the joint, inflamed tendons and bursae on the outside, or a labral tear in younger, active patients. Pain felt in the groin, buttock or even the knee can come from the hip, so a careful exam matters.
For worn-out hips, total hip replacement is one of the most successful operations in medicine. Our surgeons use the anterior approach where suitable, which avoids cutting major muscles and lets many patients go home the same day.

Ultrasound-guided steroid or PRP injections into the joint or bursa.
