Understanding what to expect before and after joint replacement surgery makes recovery smoother and less stressful. In these short videos, Dr. James Mitchell, a hip and knee replacement surgeon in Oklahoma City, walks you through every stage of the process, from medical optimization before surgery to the milestones you will reach at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 6 months after your procedure.
Whether you are preparing for hip replacement, knee replacement, or still deciding if surgery is right for you, these resources answer the questions patients ask most: How long does recovery take? When can I walk, drive, and return to normal activity? What can I do now to get the best result?
