Dr. Wind is excited to announce to patients the option of outpatient total joint replacement in 2021. Over the last two years more and more patients have been discharged from the hospital same day after joint replacement surgery. Dr. Wind is now performing these surgeries for health and active patients at the Boulders Ambulatory Surgery Center. The surgery center has developed a rapid recovery pathway for joint replacement patients whereby patients have surgery and are discharged home the same day. Most patients are excited to have the option of recovery at home without the need for hospital admission. Physical therapy starts within 2-4 days after surgery. Outpatient joint replacement has become an extremely popular option for many patients especially given the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic. Patients are encouraged to speak with Dr. Wind about whether they would be a candidate for this surgical option.
