Spooner Fountain Hills invites the community to join Dr. Ben Albert from Scottsdale Hip and Knee Tuesday, Oct. 10, at 6 p.m., for a discussion on total hip and total knee replacements.

His presentation will include a discussion on surgical versus non-surgical options for managing joint pain. This free event is held at Spooner Fountain Hills, 16838 E. Palisades Blvd., Suite B-121. Everyone is invited to attend.

Albert is an orthopedic surgeon who is fellowship-trained in the non-operative and operative treatment of hip and knee pain. He is also known for his kindness and personalized approach, a press release said, adding that many of his patients obtain excellent results and avoid surgery with his non-operative treatment options.

When Albert does perform surgery, he often does so with minimally invasive surgery techniques for both hip and knee replacements to help his patients recover faster. He performs robotic-assisted hip and knee replacements because they can provide better outcomes and can have fewer complications.

Non-surgical options include medication, injection, braces and therapy, while surgical options include minimally invasive surgery, robotic partial or total knee replacement and robotic hip replacement.
