Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery

If you have osteoarthritis, ordinary motions like walking, getting up from a chair and getting in or out of your car can cause a tremendous amount of pain and limit your mobility. At POA, we offer hip and knee replacement surgery procedures to treat hip and knee pain. With two Greenville locations, we offer convenient care to patients throughout the Upstate, SC area.

Hip and Knee Pain Treatments

Treatments like exercise, medications and injections can control osteoarthritis pain. But as the cartilage in your joints continues to wear down and your pain increases, joint replacement surgery can be the solution to getting you moving again, pain-free. The two most common types of joint replacement surgeries are knee replacements and hip replacements to address chronic knee or hip pain.

POA joint replacement surgeons offer:

Minimally-invasive partial joint replacements that resurface only the damaged portion of the joint with metal or plastic implants
Total joint replacements that completely remove the diseased or damaged joint and replace it with an implant that replicates the motion of a healthy joint.

The POA surgeons who specialize in joint replacement are experts at determining which type of treatment will be best for your particular case, whether you are dealing with hip pain, knee pain, or other joint-related pain. They have received the most advanced training and are among the most experienced providers of procedures such as hip and knee replacement surgery in Greenville and throughout the Upstate, SC area. In addition, most POA patients will be able to participate in the award-winning Joint Camp program at St. Francis.
