Total Joint Replacement

Replacing a major joint in the human body — such as a hip, knee, or shoulder — can significantly improve your quality of life, especially if you suffer from pain, weakness in the joint, or limited mobility. Great strides are also being made to minimize and even eliminate some of the most common complications associated with total joint replacement. In this episode, Tom talks with Dr. Mark Snyder about some of the work that’s been pioneered right here in Cincinnati, which is having an impact on treatment practices nationwide and overseas. We also hear from Linda Maier, a patient who’s had two very different experiences with total knee replacement.
