Joint Restoration Center

Patients have many questions when evaluating joint replacement and rehabilitation. Reasonable concerns about the results of treatment play a significant role in the decision making process. Georgetown University Hospital’s Joint Restoration Center provides guidance based on a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field. Our goal is to restore function and mobility faster and with less pain. Our comprehensive approach means everyone treated at Georgetown benefits from a seamless continuum of care from the initial evaluation through the procedure and physical rehabilitation.

Because Georgetown’s team of clinicians performs the full range of available procedures your initial evaluation will help you evaluate all the options available to you. You will make your treatment decision with the confidence that your care will be provided by some of the nation’s leading experts in the field of joint restoration.
