A breakthrough approach
Orthopedic surgeons at the Ingalls Joint Center use a computer-assisted surgical navigation system to position new knees and hips with pinpoint accuracy. This state-of-the-art technology means less pain, faster recovery and better range of motion. All of this translates into stronger, longer-lasting knees and hips.
