Description of practice:

This practice specializes in treating patients that have arthritis of the hip or knee. Dr. Drucker is a board certified orthopaedic surgeon. He has completed three fellowships in total joint replacement. His patients will be exposed to the latest in non-surgical and surgical treatments.

WHAT IS HIP RESURFACING?
An exciting new alternative to total hip replacement is now available in the United States. Used successfully for years around the globe, the BIRMINGHAM HIP Resurfacing System has recently been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States. Now, patients suffering from hip pain due to arthritis, dysplasia or avascular necrosis can benefit from its conservative approach to treatment.
