Restoring Mobility and Quality of Life
Hip arthritis can make even simple movements—like walking or sleeping—painful and difficult. Hip replacement surgery is highly effective at relieving pain and restoring function. Dr. Shen specializes in total hip replacement surgery using the latest technologies and techniques. Learn more about surgical approaches here: Modern Minimally Invasive Hip Replacement Surgery →.
A hip replacement involves the careful removal of damaged cartilage and bone on both sides of the hip joint, followed by placement of a durable implant that replicates the natural motion of your hip. Dr. Shen’s surgical philosophy focuses on:
- Modern and minimally invasive technique with advanced technology
- Careful preoperative planning to restore natural hip mechanics
- Rapid recovery protocols that get patients walking within hours of surgery without precautions
Robotic technology for hip replacement surgery enables:
- Advanced 3D planning to ensure optimal implant sizing and positioning
- Virtual modeling of the hip to maximize impingement-free range of motion
- Highly-precise removal of damaged cartilage
- Intraoperative navigation that allows for highly-accurate implant positioning and restoration of native hip geometry
