Lori Mayer Patient Testimonial | Portal Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty

Lori Mayer, from Highlands Ranch CO, suffered from hip arthritis and needed a total hip replacement. Through her personal research she found Dr. Joseph Assini, an orthopedic surgeon at OrthoONE at Swedish Medical Center.

Dr. Assini performed a portal assisted total hip arthroplasty – a new minimally-invasive technique that he helped develop.

Total Knee Arthroplasty

In this video Dr. Assini and his team perform a total knee replacement. About half of Dr. Assini’s patients will go home the day of their procedure.

"The ability to dramatically improve a patient's quality of life is what I enjoy most about orthopedic surgery and particularly joint replacement. I believe that each patient's presentation is unique and requires an individual treatment plan."
