Minimally Invasive Surgery
Dr. Jeffrey Rich at Miami Joint Restoration Center always looks for nonsurgical treatments for most of the bone, joint and muscle problems patients see him for. But when surgery becomes the last resort for correcting a musculoskeletal problem, he uses advanced minimally invasive techniques such as computer-navigated arthroscopic knee surgery for greater surgical precision, smaller scars, less postoperative pain and faster recovery.
Direct Anterior Approach
Dr. Rich is currently performing the direct anterior approach for total hip replacement. By using the direct anterior approach, Dr. Rich is working between the muscles without detaching them from the bone. When these muscles are not cut, patients can return to activity much faster and do not have the restrictions after surgery like other approaches. Anterior hip replacement is a proven surgical protocol with thousands of successful procedures done. Let Dr. Rich discuss with you the advantages of direct anterior hip replacement and help you return to the activities you enjoy.
