What we treat
Four focused procedures.
One precision standard.
Dr. Denyer focuses exclusively on hip and knee replacement — the depth of experience that comes from doing one thing exceptionally well.
Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty (UKA)
Partial Knee Replacement
“Preserve what's working. Replace only what's worn.”
Only the damaged compartment of the knee is resurfaced, leaving healthy bone, cartilage, and ligaments intact. This means less surgery, faster recovery, and a knee that moves more naturally.
Incision
3–4 inches
Hospital Stay
Same-day discharge (outpatient)
Daily Activity
2–4 weeks to daily activity
Best For
arthritis limited to the medial or lateral compartment
Patellofemoral Arthroplasty (PFA)
Patellofemoral Replacement
“Arthritis in the kneecap only.”
Only the kneecap joint is resurfaced when the medial and lateral compartments are healthy. A smaller, tissue-preserving alternative to total knee replacement for isolated anterior knee arthritis.
Incision
3–4 inches
Hospital Stay
Same-day discharge (outpatient)
Daily Activity
2–4 weeks to daily activity
Best For
arthritis limited to the patellofemoral (kneecap) joint
Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)
Total Knee Replacement
“End-stage arthritis. Total relief.”
All three compartments of the knee are resurfaced with metal and plastic components. The gold standard for advanced knee arthritis, with excellent long-term outcomes and 95%+ satisfaction rates.
Incision
5–7 inches
Hospital Stay
Same-day or 1-night stay
Daily Activity
4–6 weeks to daily activity
Best For
end-stage arthritis across the entire knee joint
Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA)
Total Hip Replacement
“A worn hip joint. A new beginning.”
The damaged ball-and-socket hip joint is replaced with a prosthetic implant using a muscle-sparing direct anterior approach and AI navigation. Minimal tissue disruption means faster recovery and fewer restrictions.
Incision
3–4 inches (anterior approach)
Hospital Stay
Same-day discharge (outpatient)
Daily Activity
2–4 weeks to daily activity
Best For
hip arthritis, osteonecrosis, or hip fracture
Many appropriate candidates go home the same day. Outpatient / same-day joint replacement →
