He takes the time to listen to his patients and explain their health and disease process in terms that are easy to understand. He has expertise in minimally invasive approaches for hip replacement, speeding recovery and minimizing surgical trauma so that more than 95% of patients can return home the same day as their surgery. He stays current in best practices regarding pain control agents, therapies, and pain management for both knee and hip patients. Virtually all hip and knee replacement patients can now have true outpatient surgery, returning home a few hours after surgery completion, even with revision surgery.Dr. Clifford was born in New Jersey, parents originally Vermont natives, grew up in New Jersey and then Florida.
