ProOrtho in Kirkland will host a free seminar on joint replacement surgery at 7 p.m. on Jan. 21.

Joint replacement surgery is a decision being weighed by many of us or our loved ones. Join Dr. Robin Fuchs as he discusses the advances in total joint replacement surgery.

Additionally, learn about how three ProOrtho surgeons, doctors Fuchs, Stickney and McAllister, are formally evaluating outcomes following total knee replacements, utilizing MIS (minimally invasive surgery) computer-assisted techniques in normal risk and high risk patients.

Patients involved in the study undergo a thorough preoperative teaching program, and extensive education on postoperative pain management methods that promote rapid rehabilitation. The information garnered from this study helps set the stage for safe improvement in knee replacement surgery.

ProOrtho is located at 12911 120th Ave NE in Kirkland.
