We strongly suggest you attend a pre-op class. We have found that they
are helpful in preparation for this elective procedure. We will discuss
joint replacement basics as well as what you need to do before surgery,
expectations for the day of surgery and after surgery and discharge
planning information. Questions are taken throughout the class.
Registration
Registration is required as classes fill quickly and class times
and dates are subject to change.
