While we know that you are looking forward to relief from your hip or knee pain, we understand that you may be anxious about the surgery and recovery process. That's why the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation provides The Joint Replacement Handbook.

This guide is a communication and education tool for patients, doctors, physical and occupational therapists, and nurses. It is designed to educate you so that you know what to expect every step of the way, how you can prepare, and how to take care of your new joint for life.
