University of Maryland Joint Network

The University of Maryland Joint Network is home to Maryland's leading joint replacement surgeons. Located throughout the state, UM Joint Network surgeons are unique among other orthopedic surgeons for their advanced expertise in total hip and knee replacements.

Every UM Joint Network surgeon is held to the highest standards of care. They are required to perform at least 20 total hip and knee replacement surgeries every year with successful outcomes in order to qualify for Network membership. From June 2018 to June 2019, UM Joint Network surgeons performed over 4,000 hip and knee replacements.
