St. Joseph Mercy Port Huron Celebrates Two Years of MAKOplasty

St. Joseph Mercy Port Huron  is celebrating two years of offering advanced MAKOplasty^® robotic orthopedic surgery. St. Joseph Mercy Port Huron was the first hospital in southeastern Michigan to offer MAKOplasty^® partial knee resurfacing, and the first hospital in Michigan to offer MAKOplasty^® total hip replacement.  Since the hospital unveiled the new technology in July 2010, hundreds of patients have benefited from the advanced surgery which provides for a shorter length of stay, increased mobility and a long-term alternative to a total knee surgical procedure.  Due to the overwhelming success of the partial knee resurfacing program, SJMPH introduced MAKOplasty^® Total Hip Arthroplasty in January 2012. Patients who have undergone the procedure show incredible results and potentially reduced recovery time from its traditional counterpart.  For a referral to one of the qualified surgeons for MAKOplasty^® partial knee or total hip robotic surgery at St. Joseph Mercy Port Huron, please call toll free: 1-888-MERCYME (1-888-637-2963), or visit us online at mymercy.us.
