Total Joint Care

Total joint replacement is one of the most common elective surgical procedures in South Texas and the United States.

More than 800,000 total joint replacements are performed every year on patients seeking to restore function of a joint damaged by arthritis or other causes — and to relieve pain.

From knee replacements to complex reconstructive surgery to minimally invasive anterior hip replacement, the Orthopaedics team at UT Health San Antonio provides the latest in total joint care.
