For most people, having a joint replacement operation is a scary ordeal and means a week in the hospital. Today, however, great strides have been made for those needing joint replacement surgery and they need less time in the hospital. The staff of the INTEGRIS Joint Replacement Center at INTEGRIS Baptist Medical Center can get answers to your questions about the symptoms, causes and advanced treatment options associated with knee and hip pain.

The center located on 6 East at INTEGRIS Baptist offers a unique "camp" concept that brings a wellness approach to total joint replacement. Patients, better known as campers, participate in a group setting for rehabilitation exercises, meals and activities and are encouraged to wear casual clothing throughout their stay. Special amenities include a hairdresser appointment and gourmet meal the night before camp graduation (discharge).
