Second Opinions
If you’re uncertain about a recommended course of treatment for your joint condition, getting a second opinion can help you gain clarity and confidence in your decision. At the Joint Replacement Center of Scottsdale, our specialists provide a detailed evaluation of your condition and discuss all available options, including non-surgical treatments, advanced surgical techniques, and lifestyle modifications.
Dr. Shane Martin is one of the most experienced orthopedic surgeons in Arizona. His extensive experience in orthopedic surgery makes him a perfect choice for patients seeking second opinions either before a major surgery or after one has been performed.
When Should You Seek a Second Opinion?
It’s always a good idea to seek a second opinion if:
- You’ve been told surgery is your only option and you want to explore alternative treatments.
- You’ve been diagnosed with a rare or complex condition, such as advanced arthritis or implant failure.
- Your current treatment hasn’t been effective, and you’re still experiencing pain or limited mobility.
- You’re unsure about the recommended procedure or need more information to feel confident in your choice.
A second opinion ensures you have the knowledge and understanding to make an informed decision about your joint health. Contact us today to schedule your consultation and get the expert advice you deserve.

Dr Martin is the cream-of-the-crop! He has the best bedside manner that I’ve ever seen. He is very patient, and he listens to what you have to say.

I had an excellent experience at The Joint Replacement Center of Scottsdale. Dr. Shane Martin’s expertise is appreciated, and he also has a wonderful bedside manner. I was nervous going in, but the entire team put me at ease. Crystal and Jeanette were both amazing, along with Dion in recovery. I have complete trust in Dr. Martin and will only use his services when needed in the future. The facility was incredibly clean, and the entire staff provided excellent care! I am so thankful that I found Dr. Martin!
It was a great experience considering I was having a knee replaced. Everyone made me feel very comfortable about the decision I made and the Doctor I chose. I’m very glad I went to this location considering I’m having the other knee replaced in 3 weeks. The rehab course they have set me on has been great and stress free with all the tools provided. Pre surgery routine was printed for easy following, and they checked in every so often to see if I had any questions. They were also quick to respond with answers when things changed and were very helpful and accommodating.
