A member asked:

What are the doctors that do anterior approach hip replacement in my area?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

You need to ask: It would be helpful if there was a web site information but there isn/t. Hip replacement can be done from the front or back, but there is no list of who does it which way. The best thing you can do is get a list of of who has the best reputation for joint replacement and then call each one and see who does it from the front or back.

Specializes in Orthopedic Reconstructive Surgery

Call: You will have to call each practice to find out. On general look for someone fellowship trained in joint replacement and have it done by a high volume surgeon at a high volume hospital.
