Hip Conditions

The hip is a ball and socket joint with a wide range of motion and, when healthy, offers exceptional lower body stability. However, like any other joints in the body, overuse, wear and tear or degeneration can cause the joint to fail leading to significant pain, difficulty walking, and disability. Hip conditions can run the gamut from mild to severe requiring anything from conservative treatment to complex surgery.

Dr. Hrayr Basmajian is a leader in the field of hip replacement and specializes in the anterior approach which, while requiring more expertise than a posterior hip replacement, can lead to less muscle and nerve damage during the operation. No two patients are alike and therefore our care is customized to each of our patients depending on their particular circumstances. Learn more about common hip conditions and treatments below:
