Return to Healthy, Active Living
When arthritis damages knee, hip, or shoulder joints, causing chronic pain and limiting daily function, joint replacement can restore people to active, functional, and fulfilling lives. After rehabilitation, most patients can return to the activities they enjoyed before their joints became painful.
The Joint Commission recognizes Baylor Scott & White Surgical Hospital at Las Colinas as a Center of Excellence for Total Knee & Hip Replacement
It is designed to provide comprehensive care for patients who undergo joint replacement.
Our patient-centered and compassionate approach can help you return to healthy, active living.
Our Program Features:
- All private rooms.
- Care is delivered by a dedicated staff trained to work with patients undergoing joint replacement.
- An area explicitly dedicated to patients having joint replacement surgery.

- The orthopedic surgeons on the medical staff at Baylor Scott & White Surgical Hospital at Las Colinas utilize advanced joint replacement materials and prostheses, boasting a long track record of high-quality results.
A joint replacement can provide many years of improved functioning. Multi-center trial studies with thousands of patients show excellent long-term benefits from joint replacement.
In patients 55 years and older who undergo a total knee replacement, 93 percent still have proper function 20 years later. For total hip replacements, 95 percent are still functioning well after 20 years.
