Andrew Chambers, M.D.
Orthopedic Surgeon
Dr. Chambers is an orthopaedic surgeon at Dallas Orthopaedic
Joint Institute who specializes in joint replacement surgery. He
received extensive training in joint replacement surgery during
his fellowship at Harvard Medical School / Massachusetts
General Hospital, which was voted as the top hospital in the
United States. Dr. Chambers has implemented the techniques
learned at Harvard Medical School into his own practice and
offers minimally invasive total hip / knee replacement, partial
knee replacement, revision surgery for malfunctioning, loose,
and infected joint replacements, arthroscopic surgery of the hip
and knee, and revision of failed and recalled metal-on-metal
total hip replacement implants. Dr. Chambers focuses special
attention on surgical techniques for rapid recovery after total
joint replacement which allow his patients a more predictable
and earlier return to home and an active lifestyle.
Dr. Chambers is pleased to offer the MAKOplasty Robotic-Arm
Assisted partial/total knee and hip replacement. The
MAKOplasty procedure is changing the way joint replacement
surgeries are performed by providing each patient with a
personalized surgical experience based on their specific
diagnosis and unique anatomy using a CT-based 3D modeling.
The robotic arm technology allows for extremely precise
placement of hip/knee components with potentially less soft
tissue injury than traditional joint replacement.
Dr. Chambers is a Texas native and grew up in Houston, Texas. He
attended medical school at The University of Texas Medical
Branch in Galveston, and completed residency at John Peter
Smith Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas. He then completed a
fellowship in joint replacement surgery at Harvard Medical
School. In his free time, Dr. Chambers enjoys traveling with his
wife, Christine, and spending time with friends and family. He is
an avid sailor and enjoys participating in sailing races on the
local lakes in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Dr. Chambers practices at Methodist Dallas, Charlton, and
Richardson Hospitals. To schedule an appointment please call
