Crozer-Keystone Health System provides quality outcomes for its joint replacement procedures, including pain levels before and after knee replacement and hip replacement procedures, as well as outpatient rehabilitation. Quality outcomes are provided to us by our patients and are similar to "report cards." Outcomes are calculated based on how our patients rate their levels of pain, function and range-of-motion before and after surgery.

Patient Testimonial
Hip Replacement Surgery Delivered on a Promise to Be Pain-Free and More Flexible
“As a result of the skill and continual assurance of Dr. Frank Giammattei, the caring support of the hospital staff at Crozer, the attentive follow-up services of home care professionals and physical therapists, I'm thrilled to enjoy the promised benefits. What I did not expect was the increase in energy and sense of possibility that I began to experience about three months after the surgery. That has been a bonus!
In addition, given the focus on exercising in the recovery process, I've actually lost one dress size. That was as unexpected as it has been thrilling! Another bonus!”
