Surgeon Profile

Hip and knee replacement care with Everett Young, MD, MPH

Care focus

Dr. Young's public TJS profile focuses on direct anterior hip replacement, total knee replacement, partial knee replacement, and total hip replacement. A consultation is typically used to review symptoms, prior treatment, imaging, activity goals, medical history, and the amount of support a patient will have during recovery. The goal is to match the treatment plan to the patient rather than forcing every hip or knee problem into the same pathway.

Conditions and questions evaluated

  • Hip or knee arthritis that limits walking, stairs, work, sleep, exercise, or daily routines.
  • 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.
  • Persistent pain, stiffness, instability, loosening, wear, or other concerns after a previous hip or knee replacement.
