Clinical Focus & Expertise

• Total Hip Replacement (Arthroplasty): Precision-guided surgical replacement of the hip joint for severe osteoarthritis, prioritizing stability, longevity, and equal leg length.
• Total & Partial Knee Replacement: Advanced knee reconstruction designed to eliminate bone-on-bone pain and restore a natural, active gait.
• Complex Joint Reconstruction & Revision: Highly specialized expertise in correcting deformities and performing complex revision surgeries (replacing older or failed joint implants).
• Orthopedic Trauma: Technical management of severe fractures, specifically involving the pelvis and acetabulum (hip socket).
• Rapid Recovery Pathways: Utilizing advanced, tissue-sparing surgical techniques and targeted pain management to get patients walking within hours of surgery.

Dr. Laflamme is a "surgeon’s surgeon." The specialist that other surgeons call when a case is too complex. Because his academic background involves rebuilding severely traumatized pelvises and hip sockets, a standard, planned hip or knee replacement is executed with deep, technical expertise.
