Norwood Hospital and PGA Golfer to Host Info Session on Robotic Assisted Knee and Hip Surgery

From Norwood Hospital:

Join professional golfer, Hal Sutton, at our next community talk on MAKOplasty® robotic assisted knee and hip surgery! The session features orthopedic surgeon Dr. Mark Reichard and is hosted by TV personality, Mary Richardson.

This Free Information Seminar is on Wednesday, June 10 from 6pm – 7pm at Norwood Hospital in the Abraham Sieracki Conference Room

Learn more about the less-invasive treatment option to relieve knee or hip pain called MAKOplasty®.

Orthopedic specialists from Norwood Hospital will explain how MAKOplasty® -- an innovative robotic-arm assisted technology -- can effectively and more precisely treat early- to mid-stage osteoarthritis of the knee or hip.

On hand at the session will be professional golfer, Hal Sutton, whose 14 PGA TOUR victories include the 1983 PGA Championship and THE PLAYERS Championship in 1983 and 2000. In 2012, at age 54, Sutton made the decision to undergo a total hip replacement of his left hip and one year later underwent hip replacement on the right side. Hear from Hal how joint replacement surgery changed his life.

There will be a Q and A session hosted by Mary Richardson with the doctors and MAKO patients.

Appetizers and refreshments will be served.
