Hip and knee replacements are the most commonly performed joint replacements, but at ShorePoint Health Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda, joint replacement surgery can be performed on other joints as well, including the ankle, wrist and elbow. Surgeons on the medical staff may use minimally invasive techniques, which often allow for smaller incisions and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue. For you, this may mean less pain and scarring, more flexibility and mobility immediately following surgery, and a smoother, faster recovery.
