Joint Replacement
Joint Replacement Surgery at Trinity Health Michigan: Why Choose Us?
Orthopedic specialists recommend surgery only when we are confident it’s your best option. We use sophisticated technologies to perform surgery with a high level of precision. And our genuine interest in your well-being helps you have an exceptional experience at every turn.
Highlights of our program include:
- Excellent outcomes: A high percentage of patients feel better after surgery. They are typically up and out of bed on the day of their procedure. And most go home after a few days instead of to a rehabilitation facility. After recovery, patients consistently achieve near-normal range of motion and move through life pain-free.
- Advanced surgical techniques: For some procedures, we use special technology to create 3D models of your joint. The model helps us plan and personalize your surgery. We also use robotic surgical technology for total hip replacement and for partial and total knee replacement. These leading-edge methods help us provide the highest level of care.
- Support: Our team includes joint replacement nurse navigators who lend a helping hand before and after surgery. Navigators let you know what to expect and give you the individual attention that keeps your care moving forward.
Our Joint Replacement Services
Patients who are better prepared have better outcomes. That’s why we offer patient education classes and materials. You learn what to expect during your hospital stay and how to plan for a smooth transition home. Find out more about orthopedic surgery patient education.
Types of Joint Replacement Surgery We Offer
We offer innovative joint replacement procedures that help you feel your best for years to come. Some locations offer cementless hip replacement for younger patients. Instead of using cement, bone tissue grows into the replacement prosthesis. The cementless option can extend the life of the artificial joint, delaying the need for additional surgeries.

Additional Services for Joint Replacement Patients
Our comprehensive approach includes additional services to support your recovery. They include:
- Physical therapy: You meet with one of our therapists within hours of surgery. We help you get out of bed and start moving when it is safe to do so. Depending on the type of procedure, your care may also include outpatient physical therapy. Therapists help you gain confidence and strength using your new joint.
- Inpatient rehabilitation: Patients with complex medical conditions who undergo joint replacement surgery receive additional assistance. Trinity Health Michigan offers inpatient and outpatient orthopedic rehabilitation services that let you recover at your own pace.
