As an award-winning facility with some of the first technology of its kind offered in the Houston Bay Area, their team of knowledgeable and highly trained physicians and staff are committed to providing an unparalleled, unique patient experience.
Dr. Dan O’Neill, Orthopedic Surgeon, says “the Joint Solutions Center at Houston Physicians’ Hospital provides the most comfortable recovery in the most efficient fashion of any joint program existing today.

The Joint Solutions Center is truly a one-of-a-kind program that is dedicated to delivering an experience like no other. You can expect an individualized plan with a joint care coordinator, access to robotic surgery, pre-operative classes, and community experiences such as reunion lunches, group therapy and a space-theme competition between patients post-operatively. Every physician with the Joint Solutions Center is board certified in orthopedic surgery and performs joint replacement procedures with some of the most advanced equipment and technology, allowing the people of the Houston Bay Area to get the expert care they need without traveling far from home.
The Data
The team at the Joint Solutions Center at Houston Physicians’ Hospital “utilizes evidence-based protocols that were developed collaboratively with surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses and physical therapists,” said Dr. Anthony Melillo, Orthopedic Surgeon. “We continually enhance our program with a patient-centric approach. We invite patients back and incorporate their feedback to help us improve the program.” As a result, Houston Physicians’ Hospital is now performing the most joint replacements in the Clear Lake area.
The Joint Solutions Center focuses on every point of care and it has industry leading outcomes and data to prove it. Averaging over 600 joint replacement procedures yearly, commitment and teamwork are the core elements that have created their patient-centric approach to care with award-winning results. During their hospital stay patients walk an average of 230 feet the first time they get up to walk, which is usually less than 4 hours after surgery. Ninety-eight percent of Joint Solutions Center patients are discharged home after their hospitalization and less than 1 percent of the joint program patients experience complications.
Program results have made it easy for Houston Physicians’ Hospital’s orthopedic surgeons to become known as some of the best trained surgeons available. The patient satisfaction of the Joint Solutions Center has created such word-of-mouth marketing that our joint volume continues to increase every year – making our joint program the busiest in the Houston Bay Area.
Houston Physicians Hospital “attracts the best clinicians and surgeons,” said Dr. OmkarDave’, Orthopedic Surgeon. “The brainpower, clinical acumen and sheer surgical ability that is collectively seen in my fellow physicians at the Joint Solutions Center is commendable. We work together as a family to help each other and become better surgeons for our patients.”

Over the years joint replacement techniques and instrumentation have undergone countless improvements, Robotics is a demonstration of Houston Physicians’ Hospital’s commitment to superior orthopedic outcomes. Several orthopedic physicians utilize the Mako Robot at Houston Physicians’ Hospital, which provides precision planning, rapid recovery and a shorter hospital stay for patients. It is the most accurate and personalized approach possible to hip and knee replacement surgery.
