Seminar to offer information about hip and knee replacement Thomas Aleto, M.D., an orthopaedic surgeon and joint-replacement specialist at University of Missouri Health Care, will present the latest information about joint-replacement procedures at a free seminar at 2 p.m. Friday, Nov. 30, at the Callaway County Public Library at 710 Court St. in Fulton, Mo. “The seminar is meant to educate people about arthritis, available treatment options and, in particular, joint replacement, so that they are more involved in the decision-making process concerning their care,” said Aleto. “My focus will be on joint replacement — how it is done, what one can expect and some recent trends.” Aleto received his medical degree from the MU School of Medicine, where he also completed a residency in orthopaedic surgery. He completed a fellowship at the Center for Hip and Knee Surgery in Mooresville, Ind., one of the leading joint-replacement centers in the nation. Aleto practices at the Missouri Hip and Knee Center in Columbia, Mo., with his partner Sonny Bal, M.D. The seminar is open to the public; however, space is limited, so reservations are required. Reservations can be made by calling (573) 882-3104. |
