Did you know? Total joint replacements have been safely performed in outpatient surgery centers for five years and the care has never been better.

Choosing a surgical solution to joint pain is a big decision. That’s why our teams work so hard to make the experience as smooth, safe and supportive as possible.

Rajesh B. Makim, M.D., of Blue Water Surgery Center, LLC, explains it best:

“The [TJR] operation is basically the same as what we would do at the hospital. The costs are lower, and we have a more streamlined approach to getting people in and out of the door without compromising any patient care.”

🦴 Today is World Osteoporosis Day! 🦴

As we wrap up Bone & Joint National Action Week, we’re raising awareness about osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and leads to serious fractures for millions of people worldwide.

Even with effective treatments available, only one in five people with osteoporosis-related fractures are diagnosed and treated. That’s why awareness matters.

At AMSURG centers across the country, our affiliated musculoskeletal physicians are here to help with early diagnosis, education and personalized treatment options.

✅ Talk to your doctor about your bone health.
✅ Ask about a bone density test.
✅ Take steps to protect your future mobility.
