The North Memorial Health Advantage

  • If you aren’t sure if you require an orthopedic specialist, our primary care clinics are a good place to start. If we determine you need a specialist, we will transition your care to one of our partnered specialists around the Twin Cities.
  • We consistently receive high customer satisfaction ratings for our joint replacement care, as well as a five-star rating from Minnesota Hospital Association.
  • Our partner surgeons have been at the forefront of performing anterior approach total hip replacement surgery in Minnesota, and have performed thousands of anterior hip surgeries. This procedure has shown to have a shorter hospital stay, quicker recovery, less pain, and significantly fewer discharges to an extended care facility.
  • We also perform MRI/CT assisted total knee replacement and reverse total shoulder surgeries.
  • We have large private rooms and on-site physical therapy services.
  • Our program walks with you from beginning to end: It all starts with a preoperative class and guidebook of care.
  • You have a team dedicated to you from start to finish: A care coordinator schedules your class, registered nurses teach the preoperative class, and the welcome desk checks on you in the hospital.
