Hip arthroscopy
Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the hip joint. Dr. Ball performs hip arthroscopy to repair labral tears, remove damaged cartilage and correct hip impingement (FAI), helping patients recover mobility and reduce pain while keeping recovery time short.
Total hip replacement
For advanced hip arthritis or severe joint damage, total hip replacement can restore mobility and relieve pain. Dr. Ball performs hip replacement with a focus on long-term joint health, and rehabilitation after surgery supports a safe return to daily life.

Answers to common questions about hip care
How should I prepare for a hip procedure?
Talk with your orthopedic specialist about your medical history, medicines and activity level. You may need imaging or lab work beforehand. Your team will give you instructions on diet, activity and what to expect on the day of surgery.
What can I expect during recovery after hip surgery?
Recovery combines orthopedic follow-up, physical therapy and a gradual return to activity. You’ll work on strength, flexibility and range of motion with a structured plan, and your team guides you through each stage.
When can I return to sports after a hip procedure?
It depends on the procedure, your overall health and how your hip responds to rehabilitation. Strength, mobility and stability are restored before you return to sport, with a plan built for your body and your sport.
What non-surgical options are available for hip pain?
Physical therapy, activity changes, anti-inflammatory medicines and targeted injections can reduce pain and improve function, and help many patients avoid or delay surgery.
How do I know if I need hip surgery?
Surgery is usually considered when non-surgical treatment no longer helps, or when problems such as labral tears, cartilage damage or advanced arthritis affect your function and quality of life. Your specialist uses an exam, imaging and your goals to recommend the best plan.
