What We Do
Outpatient Total Joint Replacement Surgery
Outpatient Joint Replacement Center of America is the Southeast’s premier provider for outpatient total knee and hip replacement. Our dedicated and compassionate team is here to help put you on the path to long-lasting and life-changing relief.
If hip or knee pain is affecting your quality of life and holding you back from participating in activities that you once enjoyed, or if arthritis is causing you debilitating pain, outpatient joint replacement surgery may be the solution.
We have refined a unique, multimodal pain prevention protocol that has revolutionized joint replacement recovery. The benefits of outpatient surgery are well published. Healthy patients, regardless of age, are considered safe candidates for outpatient joint replacement surgery. Patients with medical problems also benefit from our protocol, in that they have less pain, require less narcotics, are up and moving faster, even though they may need a night or two in the hospital to manage their medical conditions. With outpatient surgery, our patients benefit from the following:

In The News
Lower Risk
We have perfected our treatment protocols over the last 5 years and now are able to perform total joint replacement surgeries in an outpatient setting, in more than 70% of cases. This greatly reduces our patient’s risk of infection as compared to having surgery in a traditional hospital.
Faster Recovery
Our experience in having performed over 14,000 procedures has allowed us to shorten the duration in which that our patients are under anesthesia. Additionally, our postoperative pain management has been refined to get our patients up and walking within 1-2 hours after the completion of the surgery
Improved Outcomes
Our postoperative rapid recovery protocol has our patients up and mobile which decreases their risk of blood clots and other post operative complications. This puts them on a path to healing much faster than typical joint replacement surgeries.
