Palmetto Bone and Joint is proud to announce the opening of our new subdivision, The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated solely to the evaluation, treatment, and surgical care of patients suffering from joint disorders. This specialized center represents the next step in our ongoing mission to provide the highest quality orthopedic care in the region—with a focus on innovation, precision, and patient-centered outcomes.

Why a Dedicated Joint Replacement Center Matters

Joint replacement surgery is a life-changing intervention for patients suffering from severe arthritis, joint degeneration, or traumatic injuries. However, not all joint replacement experiences are created equal. Studies and real-world patient outcomes increasingly show that centers dedicated exclusively to joint replacement offer better care, fewer complications, and faster recoveries than more generalized orthopedic facilities.

A specialized center like ours delivers advantages across several key areas:

1. Focused Expertise

At The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement, every aspect of care—from pre-operative consultation to post-operative recovery—is managed by a team whose sole focus is joint replacement. Our surgeons, nurses, physical therapists, and support staff have extensive experience specifically in hip and knee replacements. This focus leads to better procedural precision, fewer surgical complications, and consistently improved outcomes.

2. Streamlined Care Pathways

By consolidating joint replacement services under one roof, we eliminate the fragmentation often seen in generalized surgical settings. Patients benefit from streamlined care pathways that are optimized for efficiency, safety, and recovery. Our team uses evidence-based protocols to guide every step of the patient journey, ensuring consistency, minimizing risk, and enhancing overall satisfaction.

3. Lower Complication Rates

Because of our specialization and integrated care model, patients at The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement experience lower rates of post-operative complications such as infection, blood clots, or readmission. Our team follows the most up-to-date surgical protocols, anesthetic techniques, and infection control measures to promote optimal healing.

Cutting-Edge Techniques for Faster Recovery

In addition to our dedication to personalized care, The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement offers access to the most innovative surgical techniques and technologies available today. Our patients are among the first to benefit from minimally invasive procedures that result in less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster returns to normal life.

Here’s a closer look at two of the groundbreaking procedures we offer:

Anterior Hip Replacement

Traditional hip replacement surgery often involves accessing the hip joint from the back or side, which requires cutting through major muscle groups. This can lead to longer recovery times, increased pain, and temporary movement restrictions.

Anterior hip replacement, by contrast, involves accessing the joint from the front of the hip—between muscles rather than through them. This muscle-sparing approach offers significant benefits:

Less post-operative pain
Faster return to normal function
Reduced risk of dislocation
Shorter hospital stays or even same-day discharge

Our surgeons at The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement are among the region’s leading experts in anterior hip replacement, performing hundreds of these procedures with consistently excellent outcomes.

Jiffy Knee™ Replacement

For patients needing knee replacement, we are proud to offer the Jiffy Knee™—an innovative approach to total knee arthroplasty that emphasizes speed, precision, and minimal invasiveness.

Jiffy Knee™ is not just a brand—it’s a philosophy of care that focuses on:

Smaller incisions
Less disruption of surrounding soft tissue
Enhanced recovery protocols
Outpatient surgical options

Patients who undergo the Jiffy Knee™ procedure often walk within hours of surgery and return to normal activities much sooner than with traditional knee replacement techniques.

A Personalized Recovery Experience

Recovery doesn’t stop after surgery—and neither does our care. At The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement, we prioritize a personalized, comprehensive recovery plan tailored to each patient’s needs, goals, and lifestyle.

Our recovery protocols include:

Prehabilitation: Pre-surgery physical therapy to strengthen muscles and educate patients
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols: Evidence-based strategies to reduce the need for narcotics and support faster healing
Onsite physical therapy: Seamless coordination between surgery and rehabilitation
Ongoing support: Check-ins and communication to ensure patients stay on track with recovery

We believe that successful joint replacement is about more than the surgery—it’s about restoring quality of life, getting you back to doing what you love, and ensuring your long-term wellness.

Our new facility reflects our commitment to innovation, comfort, and quality. The Center for Advanced Joint Replacement features:

Private recovery suites
Advanced surgical technology and robotics
Onsite imaging and diagnostic tools
Family-friendly spaces and amenities
An environment designed to promote healing

Everything about our new center—from its architecture to its clinical design—was built to support optimal patient outcomes and experiences.
