Joint replacement at Southeast Alabama Medical Center provides the most up-to-date care in total knee and total hip replacement. Our goal is to help each patient regain independence by returning to work and other daily activities with little or no pain.

The patient's health, comfort and recovery are collectively our number one priority. Each patient is treated by a team of professionals who are specialists in total joint care. Every detail, from pre-operative teaching to post-operative exercising, is considered and reviewed with the patient. A Joint Care Case Manager will plan an individualized treatment program and help guide the patient through it.

Each patient's team includes the director of orthopedics, physicians, and nurses, the Joint Center coordinator, orthopedic case managers, physical therapists and occupational therapists, all of whom specialize in total joint care. The patient's personal care team will work with the patient and their family/caregiver(s) in helping the patient achieve the best possible outcome from joint surgery.
