We are all children at heart. Why let pain get in the way of that?
Thousands of patients have relied on St. Joseph’s Health for their orthopedic surgery. Why? Because we are nationally recognized with the highest ratings for our standards of excellence and exemplary performance and because we perform more knee replacement, hip replacement and spine surgeries than any other hospital in our region. Also, all of the surgeons on the Joint Replacement team and the Spine Surgery team are board certified and are fellowship trained, which is yet another year of training beyond a routine orthopedic residency. As studies show, more experience leads to better clinical outcomes.
At St. Joseph’s Health, “A Higher Level of Care” is the guiding philosophy that drives our continuous improvement in all areas of performance — from technology to safety, and from efficiency to clinical outcomes. Here are just a few measures of our success.
We are committed to the health of our community: A group of our top orthopedic surgeons extend their commitment to the farthest reaches of the globe. Co-directors Dr. Brett Greenky and Dr. Seth Greenky founded Operation Walk New York to bring joint-replacement treatment and education to patients in underdeveloped countries and the United States at no cost. Together with a staff of volunteers from Syracuse Orthopedic Specialists (SOS), they bring the miracle of mobility to the most-impoverished populations around the world.
