Joint Replacement Surgery at OrthoArkansas

Specialized care for shoulders, hips, and knees begins with a thorough evaluation and non-surgical therapies—from physical therapy to targeted injections. When those conservative treatments no longer bring relief, joint replacement surgery becomes the next step.

Connected Joint Replacement & Recovery

At OrthoArkansas, joint replacement & recovery go hand-in-hand. We partner with patients, families, and caregivers to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Advanced treatment options include:

  • Joint reconstruction & knee joint reconstruction

     

  • Revision joint surgery for failed implants

     

  • Minimally invasive arthroscopy and surgical repair of a joint

     

  • Partial joint replacement and total joint replacement

     

  • Complex hip reconstruction surgery for trauma or arthritis

     


When conservative treatments no longer help, our team guides you toward confident, informed decisions.

Personalized Joint Care Every Step of the Way

From early assessment to outpatient discharge, our goal is seamless support:

  1. Non-surgical treatment alternatives: exercise plans, medications, or targeted therapies

     

  2. Preparing for surgery: nutrition, strength, and safety education

     

  3. Selecting the right implant—such as a modern prosthetic knee joint—to match your lifestyle

     

  4. Smooth transitions home thanks to same-day outpatient orthopedic surgeries

     

Our dedicated care navigator coordinates every detail, ensuring clear communication, accessible resources, and peace of mind.

 

OrthoArkansas Joint Consultations

Our consultations go beyond the surgery itself. We help patients fully understand their condition, treatment options, and recovery expectations. Consultations may include:

  1. Pre-operative planning 
  2. Coordination between therapists, providers, and caregivers
  3. Clear communication on recovery timelines and follow-up care

   4. Dedicated Support Throughout Your Surgical Journey


Each patient is assigned a care navigator who remains involved from pre-op to post-op. This ensures all concerns are addressed quickly, resources are accessible, and families feel supported throughout the healing process.

Many of our procedures are performed as outpatient orthopedic surgeries, allowing patients to return home the same day. Learn more about our outpatient surgical process.
