Our Approach to Joint Replacement
At Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush, we know that severe joint pain can impact your ability to do the most basic tasks. Replacing the damaged joint with an artificial implant can help you feel and move better.
If you have been told you need a hip replacement, knee replacement or joint replacement in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, ankle or foot, our experienced team is here for you.
Our surgeons offer the latest in total joint replacement, partial joint replacement and resurfacing, including minimally invasive techniques that our surgeons helped create. We also provide revision surgery, treating many patients whose prior joint replacements have failed.
Every patient is unique — so we customize our approach to joint replacement for each patient — which means you can recover quickly, safely and comfortably.
