Arthritis and degenerative changes to the hip and knee are increasingly impacting the quality of life of patients. Symptoms range from early morning stiffness, pain with prolonged activity, swelling, and disturbed sleep.

Treatment options range from non-operative measures such as physiotherapy and analgesia. Should non-operative treatments not improve the symptoms adequately a surgical option may be necessary to improve pain and restore function. Surgical options may include:

  • Total Knee Replacement

  • Total Hip Replacement
