ROC Celebrates 1,000 Hip Replacements Using Mako® Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery

PORTLAND, Ore. - Feb. 12, 2025 - PRLog -- ROC proudly announces another significant milestone in orthopedic excellence, as Mark Wagner, M.D., has successfully completed over 1,000 hip replacements using the state-of-the-art Mako® Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery system. Dr. Wagner continues to lead the state in the number of Robotic Hip Replacements performed. This achievement reinforces ROC's leadership in robotic-assisted joint replacement and commitment to delivering superior patient care.

The Mako® system enables Dr. Wagner to perform total hip replacements with an unprecedented level of accuracy and precision. By creating a patient-specific plan based on a detailed pre-operative scan, Mako® allows surgeons to more precisely place and align implants, leading to better long-term outcomes. During surgery, the surgeon guides the robotic arm while preparing the joint, ensuring optimal implant positioning, alignment and leg lengths. The system also offers real-time adjustments, helping surgeons refine the procedure as needed to maximize patient benefit.

"Mako® technology enhances our ability to provide patients with highly customized and precise hip replacements, significantly improving pain relief, joint function, and overall recovery," said Dr. Wagner. "This advanced system allows us to achieve superior outcomes while maintaining the highest standard of care."

With Dr. Wagner being the most experienced Mako® surgeon for hip replacements in Oregon, patients benefit from improved accuracy, reduced stiffness, and faster recovery times. By integrating robotic-assisted surgical techniques, Dr. Wagner and his partners at ROC continue to push the boundaries of orthopedic innovation, helping thousands of patients regain mobility and quality of life.
