The Total Joint Replacement Program at John T. Mather Memorial Hospital will offer a free informational seminar on Saturday, Nov. 10, 2012 from 8:30 to 11 a.m. at the Hospital in Conference Rooms 3, 4 & 5.


Orthopedic surgeons will cover the procedures used for hip and knee replacement surgery and discuss the different conditions that lead to joint deterioration and pain. Pre- and post-operative care, rehabilitation, insurance and other related topics will be covered by Mather Hospital representatives. A question and answer period will follow.


The seminar includes a buffet breakfast. Family members and friends are welcome. Free valet parking is available at the main entrance. To register, call 631-686-7876.
