Is hip or knee pain is keeping you from the activities you love? You won’t want to miss this event! On Friday, May 12, from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m., at the York Public Library, 15 Long Sands Road, in York, York Hospital and Atlantic Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine will present a lunch & learn program, “Advances in Hip & Knee Replacement: All About Robotic Surgery” with Michael Morwood, MD. The presentation will be followed by a question-and-answer session and complimentary boxed lunches will be available “to go.”
Dr. Morwood, orthopaedic surgeon at Atlantic Orthopaedics & Sport Medicine, will discuss underlying reasons and possible treatment options for hip and knee joint pain. His talk will include arthritis and joint degeneration, location or frequency of joint pain, and discussion of medication and conservative treatment. Additionally, if you haven’t experienced adequate relief with those treatments, you may be a candidate for Mako SmartRobotics™ total knee, total hip or partial knee replacement. Dr. Morwood will explain this personalized surgical experience, known for better patient outcomes, a shorter hospital stay, quicker recovery and less pain in the weeks following surgery, and how it may work for you.
