Joint Reconstruction

Partial Knee Arthroplasty

Partial Knee Arthroplasty (Replacement) is a highly successful surgical procedure designed to relieve pain and improve function for patients with end-stage knee arthritis localized to one of the three compartments of the knee. It involves removing the worn bearing surfaces of the knee and replacing them with metal and plastic components that allow for smooth motion. When non-operative treatments for arthritis such as weight-loss, pain medications, injections, and low-impact exercise have failed, Dr. Hajnik may recommend this surgery. Learn more about Partial Knee Arthroplasty.

Total Knee Arthroplasty

Total Knee Arthroplasty (Replacement) is a highly successful surgical procedure designed to relieve pain and improve function for patients with end-stage knee arthritis. It involves removing the worn bearing surfaces of the knee and replacing them with metal and plastic components that allow for smooth motion. When non-operative treatments for arthritis such as weight-loss, pain medications, injections, and low-impact exercise have failed, Dr. Hajnik may recommend this surgery.

Total Hip Arthroplasty

Total Hip Arthroplasty (Replacement) is a highly successful surgical procedure designed to relieve pain and improve function for patients with end-stage hip arthritis. It involves removing the worn bearing surfaces of the hip and replacing them with metal and plastic components that allow for smooth motion. When non-operative treatments for arthritis such as weight-loss, pain medications, injections, and low-impact exercise have failed, Dr. Hajnik may recommend this surgery.
