Hi, I'm Dr. Ryan Bauman and I'm a fellowship-trained hip and knee replacement surgeon here at Miami Valley Hospital. I think what you'll find if you come to Miami Valley Hospital is that we do it better, mainly because we work as a team. It's not just the surgeon working by himself, but it's the nurses, the physical therapists, occupational therapists, anesthesiologists, and our medical doctors.
In my training at the Mayo Clinic, we really focused on taking care of pain from multiple pathways, such that a very large surgery, such as hip and knee replacement, the pain can be made more manageable.
I do both primary and revision hip and knee replacement, so anyone that has any problem in their knee or their hip from young to old, we're able to address. Specifically focusing on degenerative knees that have worn out from wear and tear over time. From the simple straightforward knee replacement to the complex knee replacement in someone that has had traumatic injuries throughout life.
