Hip Surgery hospital in Washington, PA
Hip Joint Replacement
Our hips form the foundation of our bodies, keeping us upright and allowing us to walk with ease. However, time, age, and wear and tear can take their toll, eventually leading to the cartilage in our hip joints breaking down and causing pain. When this happens, we may need to consider hip joint replacement surgery.
Hip joint replacements are one of the most common surgeries performed today, and with good reason. They can dramatically improve quality of life for patients by offering treatment for pelvic pain and restoring mobility. At Advanced Surgical Hospital, our experienced surgeons have been recognized by Healthgrades(opens in a new tab) as the #1 hospital in the state of Pennsylvania for total joint replacement surgery.
If you're ready to get the care you deserve, Advanced Surgical Hospital is ready to help. Give us a call today to learn more about our services or to request an appointment.

Total Hip Replacement for Long-Term Relief
Hip joint replacement involves replacing the damaged parts of the hip joint with artificial components, known as prostheses.
At Advanced Surgical Hospital, we offer several types of hip replacements that may include but are not limited to:
- Anterior Total Hip Replacement
- Posterior Total Hip Replacement
- Revision Total Hip Replacement
During hip joint replacement surgery, the damaged cartilage and bone are removed from the hip joint and replaced with artificial components. Once the artificial components are in place, they will be attached to the healthy bone with special cement or screws.
