Take the First step. It's easier than you think.

If you’re considering hip or knee replacement, we encourage you to take the first step today.  If you are experiencing symptoms like joint soreness, inability to put weight on your hip or knee, a fear of falling, or sleeplessness and irritability due to your joint pain, a joint replacement could be a solution.  We encourage you to begin exploring the best treatment for your individual situation by visiting one of the excellent surgeons at Northern Orthopedics.  They can discuss your choices with you and how The Joint Wellness Center can make your recovery easier and your rehabilitation faster.

An Integrated Program

The interdisciplinary program at St. Joseph’s Medical Center is dedicated to being a model for quality joint replacement care.  In 2007, more than 300 surgeries were performed.  The philosophy of the Joint Camp is to ensure you are not alone during the recovery process.  You will choose a family member or friend to be your personal coach to participate in your physical therapy and rehabilitation.  The Joint Camp team is dedicated to educating and supporting you through every step of your joint replacement decision and recovery.
