Palm Beach Sports Medicine is dedicated to helping you select the most conservative approach to relieving joint pain, but sometimes a joint is so damaged that joint replacement surgery is your best option.
Even then, we are able to use the most advanced surgical techniques to provide the least trauma to the muscle and tissue surrounding the joint and to speed your recovery.
We are now pleased to offer robotic-assisted total joint replacement and minimally-invasive direct anterior hip replacement.
contact usTotal hip arthroplasty, commonly known as hip replacement surgery, is a highly effective procedure designed to alleviate pain and restore mobility in patients with hip joint damage. During the surgery, the damaged hip joint is replaced with a durable prosthesis, allowing for improved function and quality of life. Most patients experience significant pain relief and a return to daily activities within weeks. If you're struggling with hip pain, our expert team is here to guide you through the process and support your journey to recovery.
Our skilled surgeons are pleased to offer three different approaches to the hip: Direct anterior, anterolateral, and posterior.
Total knee arthroplasty, or knee replacement surgery, is a proven procedure that helps relieve pain and restore function for individuals suffering from severe knee joint damage. During the surgery, the damaged parts of the knee are replaced with a prosthesis, allowing for improved mobility and a return to daily activities. Many patients experience significant pain reduction and enhanced quality of life following the procedure. With advancements in minimally invasive techniques, recovery times are often shorter and rehabilitation is more manageable. If knee pain is affecting your lifestyle, our experienced team is ready to support you on your path to recovery.
Our surgeons are proud to offer robotic-assisted total knee replacement and patient-specific custom total knee replacement.
Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, or partial knee replacement surgery, is an effective surgical option for patients with arthritis confined to a specific part of the knee. Unlike total knee replacement, this procedure involves replacing only the damaged portion, preserving healthy bone and tissue for more natural movement. Patients typically experience faster recovery, less post-operative pain, and a quicker return to normal activities. With minimally invasive techniques, the procedure offers a smaller incision and reduced impact on surrounding tissues. If localized knee pain is limiting your lifestyle, our skilled team is here to guide you through a personalized treatment plan for optimal recovery.

Revision total joint replacement is a specialized procedure performed when a previous joint replacement wears out, becomes loose, or causes discomfort. This surgery involves replacing or repairing the existing implant to restore function and alleviate pain. While more complex than the initial replacement, advancements in surgical techniques ensure that patients can still achieve significant improvements in mobility and quality of life. Recovery may take longer, but with a tailored rehabilitation plan, most individuals regain the ability to enjoy daily activities. Our experienced team is dedicated to providing personalized care and expert solutions to help you recover fully from a worn-out joint replacement.
Anatomic shoulder replacement is a highly effective procedure designed to relieve pain and restore shoulder function in patients with arthritis or severe joint damage. In this surgery, the damaged joint surfaces are replaced with prosthetic components that closely mimic the natural anatomy of the shoulder. Patients often experience significant pain reduction and improved range of motion, allowing them to return to daily activities. With advancements in surgical techniques, recovery times have shortened, and outcomes are more predictable. If shoulder pain is limiting your movement, our expert team is here to provide personalized care and guide you toward lasting relief and improved function.
Reverse shoulder replacement is a specialized procedure ideal for patients with severe rotator cuff damage or advanced arthritis that affects shoulder stability. In this surgery, the natural positions of the shoulder joint’s ball and socket are reversed, allowing other muscles, like the deltoid, to compensate for the damaged rotator cuff. This approach offers significant pain relief and improves arm function, especially for overhead movements. Patients often experience enhanced stability and a return to daily activities after recovery. If shoulder pain and weakness are limiting your quality of life, our skilled team is here to offer expert care and guide you to a full recovery.
Remember that even the most sophisticated prosthetic joint can’t last forever. Modern technologies have given us longer lasting prosthetic joints, but even the best implants can wear out after 15 or 20 years. At Palm Beach Sports Medicine, our surgeons can help you move confidently into the future with the newest surgical revision techniques to provide you with a joint that will last another 15 or 20 years — or longer!
