Evolution® Medial-Pivot Knee Replacement

“What excites me about the Evolution® Medial-Pivot knee is that the patient can come into the office in four weeks and their knee behaves like other knees do at three or even six months. Patients have better quadriceps function, are able to get back to activities faster, and ultimately, they're just happier patients."
Dr. Russell Nevins, Las Vegas, NV

SuperPath® Approach for Hip Replacement

Because the tissues surrounding the hip are not traumatized with this approach, many patients are able to return to mobility within days, rather than weeks or months. A number of patients who have undergone this procedure are able to walk unassisted the day after surgery.1
