Our new Mako System provides greater precision and accuracy to patients undergoing total hip, total knee, and partial knee replacement surgery. Robotic arm-assisted surgery enables surgeons to provide each patient an individualized plan and aids with precise alignment of knee and hip implants.
These revolutionary advancements in joint replacement translate into quicker patient recovery, shorter hospital stays, and most importantly, higher patient satisfaction ratings as compared to traditional knee and hip replacement surgery.
A longstanding history of orthopedic surgery success
Nearly one in four people experience joint pain every year, and about 1 million Americans undergo either total hip or knee replacement surgery annually.
The joint replacement experts at Adventist Health Simi Valley have performed thousands of joint replacements during our long history in Simi Valley and the surrounding communities. Our renowned orthopedic surgeons work with our nursing, rehab and therapy teams to develop comprehensive treatment plans for each joint replacement patient.
