We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience. To do so, we are actively working with consultants to update the website by increasing its accessibility and usability by persons who use assistive technologies
such as automated tools, keyboard-only navigation, and screen readers.
We are working to have the website conform to the relevant standards of the Section 508 Web Accessibility Standards developed by the United States Access Board, as
well as the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. These standards and guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. We believe that conformance with these standards and
guidelines will help make the website more user friendly for all people.
Our efforts are ongoing. While we strive to have the website adhere to these guidelines and standards, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website.
If, at any time, you have specific questions or concerns about the accessibility of any particular webpage, please contact WebsiteAccess@tenethealth.com so that we may be of assistance.
No one wants to be immobile for any length of time. Having the freedom to be able to move around is a priceless gift. Don’t allow any form of hip pain affect your ability to be mobile. At West Boca Medical Center, we have modern treatments designed
to erase much of the pain you’ve been enduring. Find out more about hip treatment here.
If you are dealing with Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD), like millions of other Americans, you could qualify for MAKOplasty at our hospital, which uses robotic arm technology for hip replacement. Some of the conditions of DJD include:
Osteoarthritis (OA), also called “wear and tear arthritis,” in which cartilage wears down over time
Post-traumatic arthritis, which results from a severe fracture or dislocation of the hip
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an inflammatory arthritis of the joints
Avascular necrosis (AVN), a condition where the “ball” or femoral head has lost its healthy supply of blood flow causing the bone to die and the femoral head to become misshapen
Hip dysplasia, a condition where bones around the hip did not form properly, which may cause misalignment of the hip joint
