Over the past 30 years, I have witnessed incredible advances in the field of hip and knee replacement surgery. By utilizing a combination of cutting-edge techniques and time-proven components, I am able to give my patients a renewed life, with faster recoveries and outstanding long-term success. There is no greater pleasure than to have someone hobble into my office and then, in just a few weeks, they are pain-free and back on the golf course or tennis court. I want people to realize that these state-of-the-art surgical options are available here at South Palm Orthopedics, even if they have experienced a series of failed surgeries elsewhere.
