Our practice prides itself on caring for each patient throughout the joint replacement journey. Superior outcomes depend on much more than the surgery itself. While a well-done procedure is essential, equally so are all of the other elements in the care pathway that contribute to its success. These “critical to quality” elements include patient education, preparation and optimization for surgery, a good support system, safe and optimal pain management, as well as careful management of the postoperative care including physical therapy and return to function.
For each patient, the care pathway must be personalized to each individual’s unique situation, needs and goals. This requires a level of care and attention that most orthopedic practices are not willing to invest in. For us the commitment is essential to achieve what is important to our patients:
- Less Pain
- Faster Recovery
- Superior Outcomes
- Few Complications
A.V.A.T.A.R™ is an acronym that stands for Alignment of Vital Assets To Accelerate Recovery. It is our concierge, personalized care pathway and applies to all patients for knee, hip and shoulder replacement so that we can consistently aim for the best outcomes for our patients. We navigate each patient through the joint replacement journey so that nothing falls through the cracks.
