While many people associate orthopedics with the treatment of bones, it is a medical specialty that is much more complex. An orthopedist specializes in injuries and diseases of the musculoskeletal system (the body's muscles, skeleton, and related tissues), including the spine, joints, ligaments, tendons, and nerves.
The orthopedic specialists at Glendale Memorial strive to offer quality care that incoporates compassion with the latest in technological procedures.

A New Approach to Hip Replacement
Regain Your Motion. Regain Your Life.
Glendale Memorial offers the latest in advanced surgical procedures for hip replacement surgery - the Anterior Approach. We are the only hospital in the area that offers this new surgical method.
The Anterior Approach allows the surgeon to reach your hip joint from the front of the hip as opposed to the lateral (side) or the posterior (back) approach. This way, your hip can be replaced without detachment of muscle from the pelvis or femur during surgery, as done in traditional procedures. A technologically advanced surgical table helps the surgeon minimize trauma under the skin by placing you in a precise position not possible with conventional tables.
The Anterior Approach to hip replacement offers:
- Faster recovery
- Less pain
- Less scarring and muscle trauma
- Faster recovery
