Learn About Our Total Joint Replacement Program at Samaritan

We Understand Joint Replacement Is a Big Decision

That’s why Samaritan’s Total Joint Replacement Program is based on advanced preparation, education and individualized post-surgical therapy.

Better yet, our program is based at Samaritan Albany General Hospital, which has been given a 5-Star rating by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. This rating validates the hospital’s excellence across the full spectrum of care - from diagnosis to treatment, rehabilitation and outcomes.

You don’t have to travel far to know you’re getting the best possible care, right here at home.
