Dr. William Hamilton, MD

Dr. William Hamilton, MD

Hip and Knee Surgeon
10716 Richmond Hwy, Ste 101, Lorton, VA
Dr. Hamilton, a native of Ithaca, New York, is a fellowship-trained specialist in the field of hip and knee reconstruction and one of the leading joint replacement surgeons in the country. Because his practice is exclusively hip and knee replacement, he has a keen understanding of the intricacies and complexities involved in these surgeries. He has performed over 10,000 hip and knee replacements. He travels far and wide to lecture and consult on joint replacement topics and has several ongoing research studies in this area. He’s published well over 100 articles on hip and knee replacement topics. He was a regional pioneer of the anterior approach to total hip arthroplasty, a muscle-sparing approach that leads to less postoperative pain and an accelerated recovery. He has performed thousands of these procedures, trained hundreds of surgeons in the technique, and published numerous articles on the anterior approach. Most importantly, listening to and getting to know his patients is his top priority. “A successful replacement is more than just knowing how to put the implants in correctly; it’s anticipating and responding to your patient’s needs. I’m proud to be part of a practice and joint replacement center that strives to do this daily.” Dr. Hamilton maintains involvement in several local and national societies, including being a member of the prestigious Hip and Knee societies. Dr. Hamilton enjoys Golf and Travel and spends most of his leisure time with his wife, Beth, and their 3 children. Dr. Hamilton is proud to be a team leader of Operation Walk Virginia, a charitable organization that provides hip and knee replacements to needy patients in Central and South America.
