Orthopedic Knee Surgery at Beaumont

The orthopedic knee surgeons of Beaumont Hospital's Adult Reconstruction Division are dedicated to the care of patients with disabling hip and knee joint disorders. Arthritis of these joints is the most common reason for orthopedic knee surgery and frequently, joint replacement is the treatment of choice. Thousands of joint replacement operations are performed at Beaumont each year. The hospital consistently ranks among the top five busiest joint replacement programs in the country.

Beaumont, Royal Oak is also a regional referral center for patients requiring more complex revision surgery for failed total joints. Several of our orthopedic knee surgeons have special training in joint preservation procedures designed to prevent progression of arthritic or congenital disease in the young adult. The latest technology and techniques are applied in all cases. The knee surgeons actively support education and research. Beaumont Hospital's Adults Reconstruction Division is among a select group of American hospitals approved for advanced fellowship training in joint reconstruction.
