If you’re suffering with stiff and painful joints, even small tasks can feel like monumental challenges. And while medication or physical therapy may help ease your pain, sometimes surgery may be your best solution for long-term relief.

At Saint Francis our team specializes in joint replacement of the hips, knees and shoulders—all common, highly successful treatments for people living with severe pain caused by arthritis, injury or other joint-related conditions. The procedure involves removing damaged bone and cartilage and implanting a state-of-the-art mechanical joint.

Multiple Locations Dedicated to Your Care

We’re proud to offer several convenient locations for joint replacement surgery, with these services offered at Saint Francis Hospital South, Saint Francis Hospital Muskogee and specialized joint replacement care offered at the Saint Francis Joint Replacement and Spine Center.

Full Range of Options

Your surgeon will work closely with you to find the right procedure, depending on the severity of your condition and your unique needs and preferences. In addition to total joint replacement, we also specialize in joint repair and reconstruction, as well as partial joint replacement if your condition is confined to one area.

Better Precision, Less Incision

Orthopedic surgeons at Saint Francis are trained for some of the most sophisticated techniques and technology available in joint replacement. That includes 3D, computer-guided navigation systems for hip and knee replacements, allowing for exact positioning of your implant while helping preserve healthy bone.

We also offer the latest, most minimally invasive options like anterior hip replacement, a muscle-sparing alternative to traditional hip replacement. For you, this may mean often significantly less pain and blood loss, fewer complications, a shorter hospital stay and faster recovery.

Personalized Care Every Step of the Way

We know joint replacement surgery can feel overwhelming. That’s why our joint replacement program is designed to put you at ease. Every step of your journey is highly coordinated, starting with pre-operative testing and education so you know just what to expect before, during and after your procedure. We’ll then guide you seamlessly through surgery, physical therapy and life with your new joint.

Along the way, you’ll also have the support of your expert team focused on coordinating all of your care, answering questions and providing extra support whenever you need it.
