Freehold NJ Orthopedic Surgeon Gets Great Response to the Second in a of Series of Public Lectures on Advanced Joint Replacement Techniques

Freehold, NJ, November 03, 2007 --(PR.com)-- “Computer Assisted, Minimally Invasive, Total Hip Surgery” was the latest in a series of free public lectures being given October through to mid December by the team of board-certified orthopedic surgeons from the Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute in Freehold, New Jersey.

Dr. Manuel Banzon extended a warm welcome to the public this week on Tuesday, October 30 at 6.30pm, when he presented the second lecture in a series of free lectures offered at the CentraState Healthcare Center in Freehold, New Jersey. Dr Banzon introduced a responsive and participative audience to the minimally–invasive, two-incision, total hip replacement surgery now offered in the local community in Freehold. “Another great response from members of the public eager to hear about the advantages of latest advances in orthopedic procedures.” Dr Banzon commented with satisfaction. “It is very reassuring to note that we are finding the right way to communicate the benefits of the advances in our techniques to those who need the information most, the members of our community.”

Dr. Banzon, the orthopedic surgeon who performed the first computer assisted knee replacement at CentraState, using a new high-tech system, demonstrated the significant benefit of this technique to those suffering from worsening pain and other problems related to the condition of the hip, and who are good candidates for total hip replacement surgery. The advent of this minimally invasive, mini-incision approach to surgery generally results in an incredibly fast recovery, a significantly shorter hospital stay and fewer complications. Most importantly for members of the local community, this advanced surgery is available in Freehold, in central New Jersey.

For those who were unable to attend this week, a repeat lecture of this advance in total hip replacement surgery will be given on Wednesday November 28, also at CentraState.

Dr. Banzon started his orthopedic practice in Freehold in 1979 with a philosophy of providing high quality and compassionate patient care. Locally, he pioneered the use of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) in conjunction with Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS) in total joint replacement. He is one of the few surgeons who perform minimally-invasive hip replacements using a two-inch, two-incision technique. The majority of his patients recover in less than half the time it takes after traditional hip replacement surgery.

Today, all of the surgeons at Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute perform minimally-invasive joint replacement surgery.
