This minimally invasive technique lets our surgeons perform hip and knee replacements with exceptional precision and increased accuracy, leading to shorter recovery times.
When you need shoulder implant surgery, you want the latest in advanced surgical technology. The experienced surgeons at Morton Plant Hospital use preoperative plans created in Blueprint Mixed Reality software to load and interact with detailed 3-D, holographic representations of the shoulder implants. Use of this innovative software assists in surgical decision-making and helps surgeons in the optimal placement and positioning of your shoulder implant.
Whether you’re experiencing an orthopedic issue that doesn’t require surgery, or you need postsurgical rehabilitative care, the orthopedic rehabilitation program at Morton Plant Hospital works collaboratively to ensure you have a personalized plan for recovery. We use specific therapeutic exercise equipment to help patients achieve the highest level of function possible.
