For knee, hip, elbow or shoulder replacement, Transylvania Regional Hospital offers state-of-the-art joint surgery and recovery in a modern, healing environment.

You’re invited, along with your loved ones, to one of our Joint Experience educational sessions to learn more about what TRH has to offer! Drs. Angus Graham and Mark Lemel, along with managers of our Surgery, Med/Surg, TCU, Home Care and Outpatient Rehab departments, will be on hand to explain what joint patients can expect at TRH as well as showcase the outstanding quality of care our hospital provides. From our highly qualified surgeons, low infection rates, state-of-the-art new patient rooms and highly personal therapy and nursing care, there is no reason for patients to leave this community to go to another hospital for a joint replacement.
