DR. ROGER FONTESHip replacement surgery for hip arthritis has been shown to be one of the most successful orthopedic operations performed. Yet even with that success, there have still been some drawbacks to the traditional hip replacement approach.

Fortunately, a relatively new approach to hip replacement surgery - the anterior approach, or “front approach” - has addressed these issues and is allowing patients to return to their normal lifestyle quickly.

Dr. Fontes is one of only a couple of surgeons in Southern Nevada to offer this remarkable surgery and has performed more than 250 successful anterior hip replacement surgeries.

EXCITING NEWS! Dr. Fontes is now offering his patients the option to have their hip replacement surgery at the new, state of the art Parkway Recovery Care Center. PRCC is a dedicated surgery center and joint replacement program combined with dedicated luxury recovery suites for comfortable and safe overnight recovery. Click HERE to learn more about PRCC.
