What is Hemi Hip Replacement?
Hemi Hip Replacement, also known as partial hip replacement, is a surgical procedure in which only the damaged femoral head (the ball of the hip joint) is replaced with an artificial implant, while the natural socket (acetabulum) is left intact. This procedure is often recommended for elderly patients with hip fractures or conditions where only the ball portion of the hip joint is affected.
At our center, Dr. Jugal M. Patel and his team specialize in performing advanced hemi hip replacement surgeries that prioritize patient safety, mobility restoration, and long-term comfort. Our approach focuses on faster recovery, improved joint function, and helping patients regain independence.

Restoring Hip Function & Independence
We are committed to helping patients recover from hip fractures and restore mobility through expert hemi hip replacement surgery.
Hemi hip replacement is usually recommended for elderly patients with fractured femoral heads, particularly after falls, or when only the ball portion of the hip joint is damaged and the socket remains healthy.
Most patients are able to walk with support within 1–2 days after surgery. Recovery timelines vary, but many patients resume normal activities within 6–8 weeks with the help of physiotherapy.
Unlike total hip replacement where both the ball and socket are replaced, hemi hip replacement involves replacing only the femoral head. It is less extensive and generally recommended for patients where the socket is still healthy.
