Care Navigation for Joint Surgery Patients

A single point of contact for integrated specialty care.

As your source for exceptional orthopaedic care in the Northland, our approach to total joint care is seamless, comprehensive, patient-focused and outcomes-driven. From care navigation to MU Health Care physician expertise, we provide a holistic, personalized treatment plan just right for you.

At Liberty Hospital Orthopaedics staffed by MU Health Care physicians, each patient is assigned a Care Navigator to coordinate care before and after surgery, and to assist with:

• Scheduling tests and services
• Preparing for treatment or surgery
• Developing an individualized recovery plan

For optimal recovery and outcomes, we provide a level of specialization and care normally only available at academic medical centers – and we are right here in Kansas City's Northland, right where you need us to be.
