Welcome

Congratulations on your decision to learn more about joint replacement surgery. The staff of The Center for Arthritis and Joint Replacement at Phoenix Baptist Hospital extend a warm welcome to you and your family. We are privileged to share with you important information about joint replacement surgery.

Your joints are involved in almost every activity you do. Simple movements such as walking, bending, and turning require the use of your hip and knee joints. Normally, all parts of these joints work together and the joint moves easily and without pain. But when the joint becomes diseased or injured, the resulting pain can severely limit your ability to move and work.

Whether you are considering a total joint replacement, or are just beginning to explore available treatments, this website is for you. It will help you understand the causes of joint pain and treatment options. Most importantly, it will give you hope that you will be able to do more of the things you enjoy – with far less pain.

Once you're through reading this website, be sure to ask your doctor any questions you may have. Please register for our next free joint replacement seminar. Gaining as much knowledge as possible will help you choose the best course of treatment to help relieve your joint pain - and get you back into the swing of things.
