Symptoms that have not improved enough with nonsurgical treatment such as therapy, injections, medication, or activity changes.
Questions about anterior hip replacement, hip replacement approach, recovery expectations, and return to activity.
Knee arthritis, knee alignment concerns, partial-versus-total knee questions, and expectations after knee replacement.
Whether outpatient or same-day joint replacement may be appropriate based on health, home support, and recovery planning.
