Hip Replacement at Orthopedic Associates
Chronic hip pain can make everyday movements—like walking, standing, or getting out of a chair—feel exhausting and limiting. At Orthopedic Associates of SW Ohio, our experienced orthopedic surgeons specialize in hip replacement surgery to help patients reduce pain, improve joint function, and return to a more active lifestyle. Whether your discomfort is caused by arthritis, injury, or joint degeneration over time, our team delivers personalized hip care focused on long-term results.
When Do You Need a Hip Replacement?
Many patients consider hip replacement surgery after non-surgical treatments no longer provide relief. If you have tried physical therapy, medications, or injections without success, it may be time to explore surgical options. Common reasons for hip replacement include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, hip fractures, and severe joint damage.
Signs you may benefit from hip replacement surgery include persistent hip pain, stiffness, reduced range of motion, difficulty walking, or pain that interferes with sleep. Our hip specialists in SW Ohio perform thorough evaluations using advanced imaging and clinical assessments to determine the right treatment plan for your condition.
Advanced Hip Replacement & Surgical Options
Orthopedic Associates offers comprehensive hip surgery services, including total hip replacement, partial hip replacement, and minimally invasive hip procedures. Total hip replacement surgery involves removing the damaged joint and replacing it with a durable prosthetic implant designed to restore smooth movement and reduce pain.
For some patients, minimally invasive hip replacement techniques may be an option. These approaches use smaller incisions and can lead to less tissue disruption, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times. Our surgeons utilize modern technology and evidence-based techniques to improve accuracy and optimize outcomes
In addition to joint replacement, we also perform hip arthroscopy for certain conditions, allowing us to treat cartilage damage or structural issues with less invasive methods when appropriate.
What to Expect During Recovery
Recovery after hip replacement surgery is a critical part of achieving the best results. Most patients begin moving soon after surgery with guided support. Physical therapy plays an important role in restoring strength, flexibility, and mobility.
Our care team provides clear, step-by-step guidance throughout your recovery, including pain management, rehabilitation exercises, and activity recommendations. Many patients experience significant pain relief and improved function within weeks, with continued progress over the following months.

Information About the Hip
People of varying ages and lifestyles are susceptible to hip problems. Osteoarthritis – the loss of cartilage in the hip joint due to wear and tear – is common among baby boomers and seniors. Young athletes, on the other hand, can suffer from cartilage or ligament tears that can sideline them for several months.
Our physicians have extensive training in evaluating and treating hip injuries and disorders. With recent technological advancements in both surgical and nonsurgical treatment, we are able to take a less invasive approach to hip repair.
After discussing the nature of your hip problem, we will order the appropriate diagnostic tests, including x-rays and magnetic resonance images (MRIs) as needed, and develop a treatment plan to meet your needs.
