Royston Hospital - Orthopaedic Surgery
Private Surgical Service, Orthopaedics
This is where you will come to have your surgery performed. The visits to your surgeon before and after surgery will be at their consulting rooms.
Hip Replacement
An incision (cut) is made on the side of the thigh to allow the surgeon access to the hip joint. The diseased and damaged parts of the hip joint are removed and replaced with smooth, artificial metal ‘ball’ and plastic ‘socket’ parts.
