Getting you back to the life you love — with less pain, faster recovery, and a team that does this every single day.
We are here to help you on this journey.
Your smarter, quieter path to faster hip and knee recovery.
Traditional joint replacement can feel overwhelming: weeks of pain, aggressive therapy, and long hospital stays. Bounce Back Better changes the experience by coordinating the surgical plan, recovery data, at-home healing, and discharge process into one calmer path back to the life you love.
Every patient has unique anatomy. Our goal is to restore natural joint mechanics rather than simply place a standard implant.
Real-world movement data can help your team personalize activity and exercises to your body instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all plan.
Too much activity too quickly can increase swelling and pain. Quiet Recovery starts with calm fundamentals first.
From arrival to discharge, the process is built for clear communication, comfort, early walking, and a safe return home.
A cleaner, muscle-sparing approach designed to help many patients walk sooner, go home faster, and recover with more confidence.
We personalize knee replacement to your unique anatomy, restoring your knee biomechanics as close as possible to where they were before arthritis.
Start with the joint that is limiting you. Each path connects to focused education, surgeon expertise, and a recovery plan built around getting you back to daily life.
Muscle-sparing anterior options, same-day pathways, and complex hip reconstruction expertise.
Anterior Approach Hip ReplacementRestore mobility through a front-of-hip, muscle-sparing approach.→ Same-Day Hip ReplacementA streamlined path home the day of surgery for qualified patients.→ Revision Hip ReplacementSpecialized care when an older hip implant needs attention.→ Complex ReconstructionAdvanced solutions for difficult anatomy, bone loss, or prior surgery.→Personalized knee replacement, partial replacement, smart recovery tools, and revision care.
Total Knee ReplacementA modern plan to relieve severe arthritis and restore everyday movement.→ Partial Knee ReplacementTargeted treatment when only one part of the knee is worn down.→ Kinematic AlignmentA restore-not-replace technique designed around your natural knee.→ Smart KneeConnected recovery data that helps guide therapy after surgery.→ Revision Knee ReplacementExperienced help for painful, loose, infected, or aging implants.→From your first consultation to the moment you forget you ever had surgery — every person, every protocol, and every decision at Total Joint Specialists is designed around one thing: getting you back to the life you love.

UPennIndependent rankings, peer-nominated honors, and credentials earned by a team focused only on hip and knee replacement.
TJS surgeons don't just perform joint replacements — they publish the science. Our peer-reviewed research drives the standards other practices follow.

From 150+ combined peer-reviewed publications by TJS surgeons
Patients deserve more than promises. TJS measures outcomes from our own patients, publishes the results, and uses that evidence to improve joint replacement care.
Many practices can point to experience, facilities, and caring teams. Published outcomes let patients see what happened after surgery.
Without public outcome data, patients may see the surface claims but cannot compare satisfaction, infection, readmission, or recovery results.
Sources: TJS peer-reviewed studies and submitted manuscripts covering same-day discharge, satisfaction, infection, readmission/intervention, surgical efficiency, venous thromboembolism risk, revision rates, and smart implant recovery monitoring.
Core practice claims are connected to visible surgeon profiles, location guides, education pages, and source links so patients can verify the details that matter before scheduling.
Each profile lists training, practice focus, office routing, and a proof layer for awards, publications, fellowships, and third-party profile links.

Appointment Match
Start with the symptom and the scheduling team can route the appointment by hip or knee problem, preferred office, surgeon availability, and whether this is a first-time, same-day, recovery, or revision question.
Most appointments available within two weeks at locations across Georgia.
