Hip pain can make everyday tasks, like getting in and out of a car or walking up a flight of stairs, almost impossible.  Affecting all ages, hip pain can be caused by injuries to the hip joints or muscles, or by conditions like tendonitis, bursitis, or osteoarthritis.

Before you seek treatment for your hip pain or start an exercise program, come hear orthopedic surgeon Dr. Christopher Vinton explore the latest treatment options from non-operative to operative, including hip arthroscopy, anterior hip replacement, and traditional hip replacement.

This is a free program, but registration is required.
To register, please call 1-877-554-3258
Light refreshments will be served.
Validated garage parking
