Joint Replacement Center was designed to ease

suffering from joint pain and help get patients back

to a normal daily routine.

Joint replacement is an orthopaedic success story,

enabling hundreds of thousands of people to live

fuller, more active lives. Using metal alloys, high-grade

plastics and polymeric materials, our orthopaedic

surgical team can replace a painful, dysfunctional

joint with a highly functional, long-lasting prosthesis.

Over the past half-century, there have been many

advances in the design, construction and implantation

of artificial hip joints, resulting in a high percentage

of successful long-term outcomes.

Sinai-Grace Hospital is dedicated to providing quality

surgical care to patients requiring joint replacement

surgery and offers the most technologically advanced

facility in a relaxing and supportive atmosphere. Our

Medical Director, Dr. William Higginbotham is a board-

certified orthopaedic surgeon with more than 20 years

of experience. He was recently named one of Metro

Detroit's Top Docs by Hour Detroit Magazine.
