Full-Circle Care
One Path, Start to Finish
Joint replacement isn't a single appointment — it's a coordinated path with a clear next step at every stage. Below is that path in full, with a direct link to take action at each one. Already scheduled? Track your own progress in the Surgical Journey Portal.
The Path
Meet with Dr. Pallitto to discuss your symptoms, imaging, and whether hip or knee replacement is right for you.
Request an Appointment →Once surgery is scheduled, our office creates your Surgical Journey Portal account — a personal checklist for labs, medical clearance, and medication guidance in the weeks before your date.
See What to Expect →Anesthesia, the procedure itself, and monitored recovery — typically one to two hours, with robotic assistance (MAKO or VELYS) for knee replacement when appropriate.
Learn About Robotic-Assisted Surgery →Most patients go home the same day or after a short stay, with medication guidance, activity limits, and wound care instructions.
Review Discharge Instructions →Early movement and physical therapy are among the best predictors of a smooth recovery — your care team will walk you through what to expect.
Review Recovery Guidance →A follow-up visit around two weeks after surgery confirms your healing — and most patients return to full activity with no long-term restrictions.
Contact Our Office →Every stage of your journey is grounded in the same precision Dr. Pallitto brings to the operating room — from robotic-assisted planning to a documented, trackable recovery.
