Total Hip Replacement

Schneck is one of the only practices in southern Indiana to offer Anterior Approach Hip Replacement, today’s most advanced surgical technique for hip replacement.

Unlike traditional hip replacement surgery, this technique allows our surgeons to use a smaller incision on the front of the hip to replace the joint without cutting or detaching any muscle during surgery. This means less pain, a significantly faster recovery and increased mobility for patients.

Schneck Orthopedics utilizes Mako SmartRobotics for joint replacements.

The Mako SmartRobotics System transforms the way joint replacement surgeries are performed. This advanced technology offers more precision, less soft tissue damage and greater bone preservation. Total Hip Replacements utilizing Mako SmartRobotics offer patients less pain, faster recovery and a better aligned hip.

Total & Partial Knee Replacement

Schneck orthopedic surgeons utilize Mako SmartRobotics to perform Total and Partial Knee replacements. The Mako robot allows our surgeons to map each patient's knee to customize the implant and procedure. Patients enjoy the benefits of a Mako joint replacement which include:

  • personalized surgical plan
  • better implant alignment
  • fewer days in the hospital (some patients even go home the same day as their procedure)
  • less pain
  • faster recovery

Shoulder Replacement

We leverage advanced technology to ensure shoulder replacements restore strength and mobility, while requiring the least amount of recovery time possible. That means you can return to your life faster.

Total Ankle Replacement

Schneck Podiatrist, Dr. Evan Aldridge, offers advanced procedures like Total Ankle Replacement to alleviate pain, while maintaining range of motion in the ankle joint. Learn more about other advanced podiatric procedures.

Joint Replacement Specialists

Schneck is one of a handful of Indiana hospitals to receive The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval for hip and knee replacements. This national recognition means you can be confident that you are getting the highest level of orthopedic care.
