TOC’s Joint Replacement Center of Excellence is the Leading Outpatient Facility for North Florida and South Georgia
TOC is now scheduling approved total joint replacement surgeries without the need to spend the night in the hospital. The advantages of outpatient surgery include:
- Same-day discharge
- Increased comfort / high patient satisfaction
- Easy and convenient access
- Rapid recovery protocol
- Potentially reduced risk of hospital-acquired infections
- Typically lower overall cost
Our team reviews every patient’s individual needs including, diagnosis of your general health, treatment, and rehabilitation plans toward a pain-free and active lifestyle. Our joint replacement team begins with patient education inclusive of treatments available, insurance coverage and post-operative needs to help you decide if outpatient total joint surgery is a good option for you.
ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF HAVING YOUR JOINT REPLACEMENT AS AN OUTPATIENT
TOC’s team of physicians and clinical staff have advanced medical technologies and procedures to conduct joint replacement surgery in the morning at the Tallahassee Outpatient Surgery Center (TOSC), allowing patients to spend the evening in their own homes. Your TOC physician will discuss whether you may be a candidate for an outpatient procedure.
ADVANCED ROBOTIC ARM-ASSISTED KNEE REPLACEMENT
Tallahassee Orthopedic Clinic (TOC) offers robotic arm-assisted total and partial knee replacements. TOC will provide robotic surgery conducted with Stryker’s Mako Smart Robotics application, a highly advanced robotic technology. The robotic arm-assisted system allows the surgeon to control implants’ accurate alignment and positioning.
The Mako SmartRobotics procedure offers a treatment option for people experiencing stiffness or severe pain from degenerative joint disease. Dr. Chesley Durgin, M.D. said, “MAKO is enhancing the way knee replacement surgeries are performed. By using a CT-based, virtual 3D model, the MAKO system allows for each patient’s surgical plan to be personalized and adjusted prior to any bone resection and then executed with a high level of accuracy and predictability. This increased precision and customization has the potential to lead to better outcomes and higher patient satisfaction.”
