Nonsurgical treatment options will be recommended first when developing an individualized treatment plan. These methods may include receiving physical therapy, wearing a brace, or taking over-the-counter medication. These nonsurgical approaches can reduce or even eliminate hip pain.
If nonoperative care is ineffective or becomes less effective over time, our hip surgeons will discuss surgical options with you to help you determine which surgery is right for you. Our surgeons have the expertise and exceptional skills needed to perform the required surgery as well as access to the latest surgical equipment, which helps ensure the best outcome possible.

Bikini line anterior hip replacement is a modern, less invasive way to do a hip replacement. The surgery is done through a small incision along the natural crease of the groin—similar to where a bikini bottom sits—which helps hide the scar. Unlike traditional hip replacements that go through the back (posterior) or the side (lateral) of the hip and cut through muscle, this approach works between muscles without cutting them.
That means less pain after surgery, a faster recovery, and a lower risk of the hip popping out of place. Most patients are walking the same day and get back to normal activity sooner. It also leads to more accurate placement of the new hip and a more natural-feeling result.
With years of experience and orthopedic training, our hip doctors assess, diagnose, and treat hip injuries as well as other conditions that can develop in the hip, such as labral tears and hip fractures.
Our experts offer a wide array of traditional treatment methods as well as state-of-the-art surgeries, including arthroscopic repair, fracture fixation, and joint replacement.
Anterior hip replacement is a surgical procedure that involves accessing the hip joint from the front of the body, rather than the back or side, allowing for less muscle and tissue damage during the surgery.
Using an arthroscope, or small surgical camera, the surgeon repairs damaged tissue or removes loose fragments in the joint. This allows for better movement and reduced pain. Arthroscopic repair is a minimally invasive surgical technique, meaning it allows for smaller incisions and less tissue damage compared to traditional open surgery.
Joint replacement is a surgical procedure in which a damaged joint is replaced with a new joint implant made of specialized artificial materials. Joint replacement can be performed in a traditional hospital setting or in an outpatient facility that allows the patient to recover at home.
A joint replacement revision is a surgical procedure that is performed when an existing joint replacement has been compromised. During the procedure, the surgeon removes the old implant and replacing it with a new one.
