Your hip or knee replacement surgery

Four staff in surgical scrubs working in an operating theatreWe will advise you of the date and other details of your joint replacement surgery at Fremantle Hospital.

On the day of your surgery, it is important you arrive at the hospital at the scheduled time. Read about coming to Fremantle Hospital.

You can also find out more about your hospital admission, including:

  • what to bring with you
  • where to go on arrival
  • our admission processes.

Throughout the day you will move through several areas of the hospital. Each area plays an important role preparing you for surgery and helps make sure you receive safe, quality care.

We will ask for details such as your name, date of birth and what surgery you are having several times during the day. This is an important part of our safety processes.
