Arcadia is one of Phoenix’s most walkable, most active neighborhoods. Residents walk the canal trail before breakfast, hike Camelback on weekends, and cycle through streets lined with mature orange trees. It’s a neighborhood built around movement — and that makes hip and knee pain especially disruptive.
When the joint that carries you up the Cholla Trail or along the Arizona Canal starts failing, the daily rhythm of Arcadia life changes fast. Simple things — walking to Postino, getting the kids to school on foot, making the loop on the canal — become difficult or impossible.
Dr. Brandon Gough is a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon based in Scottsdale who specializes in minimally invasive, robotic-assisted hip and knee replacement. He has performed more than 8,000 procedures since 2013. Most of his patients walk the same day as surgery and go home within 24 hours — built for Arcadia’s pace.
Arcadia is best experienced on foot. The neighborhood is built for people who walk to dinner, bike to the canal, hike before work, and play a round on the weekend. Hip and knee pain doesn’t just affect your body here — it affects your relationship with your neighborhood.
When pain from osteoarthritis, joint damage, or a failed previous replacement reaches the point where non-surgical treatments are no longer helping, joint replacement surgery may be the right step forward. Dr. Gough’s approach — robotic precision, muscle-sparing technique, same-day discharge — is designed to minimize the gap between surgery and getting back to Arcadia life.
