Total Joint Program Educator Dee Whitacre is one of the remarkable educators who help our patients learn about their surgery and what to do before and after the same.

Along with Ben Gibson, this duo is passionate about their work and work passionately to keep patients and care partners engaged and knowledgeable.

They are readily available to answer any questions pre- and post-surgery, making the patient experience the very best.

Education is key to the partnership we build with our patients.

We have assembled the top joint surgeons from across the state. With quality outcomes as the primary goal, this group has pioneered same day hip and knee replacement, typically sending patients home the same day as their surgery. In fact, our patients’ average length of stay is 88% shorter than the national average.

We minimize the use of opioids. Our surgeons and anesthesiologists are experts in employing a variety of pain-management treatments, including multimodal approaches that combine non-opioid pain medications with therapies such as nerve blocks. When possible, our clinicians seek to reduce or eliminate patients’ exposure to opioid pain medications before and after surgery.

We wanted to share a recent feature on Ben Gibson, PT, DPT. Force Therapeutics recognized Ben for his outstanding work with our patients.

Below is the featured post:

Physical Therapists play an important role on Force and as part of the orthopedic Care Team; certain organizations, like Northside Hospital have empowered their PTs as the front lines of their virtual care efforts and patient engagement technology. We extend our thanks this week to Ben Gibson, PT, DPT at Northside Hospital Forsyth. Ben is one of the program's leading PTs, serving as the virtual "face" of Force for their patients, and continuously working with the Force team to ensure their digital protocols are up-to-date and aligned with organizational best practices. We spoke with Ben last week about the role PTs play in virtual care, and how tech is positively shaping the remote patient experience.
