Welcome to the Connecticut Joint Center

  • Hundreds of patients every year come from all sections of Connecticut, from other states such as NY, NJ, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and even as far away as Germany. We return our patients back to their lives quickly so they can continue to do the things they love, such as running free of pain with the grandchildren, being able to bend down and pick up a golf ball, sailing, or even taking a casual stroll by the seashore.

Professional Staff, Personal Care

Joint_center_staffPatients know the center is unique, treats its patients special, has professional nurses, and has 24/7 physician hospitalists for full, complete coverage. The only patients admitted to the Connecticut Joint Center are acute Post-op total hip, total knee and total shoulder patients. No general orthopedic patients, non-orthopedic patients nor patients with any type of infection are considered for admission to the CT Joint Center. Our nursing and physical therapy staff is hand picked and uniquely dedicated to your recovery. In general, patients recovering from total joint surgery are not sick and are encouraged to progress rapidly. This philosophy has nationally been shown to decrease the risk of surgically related immobilization, such as blood clots and pneumonia. A close cooperation with the anesthesia department permits a more pain free recovery and, when combined with less invasive techniques, fosters a personal recovery plan, which begins with our pre-op class.
