orthopedic surgeons
Joint replacement specialists
Orthopedic surgeons are physicians who specialize in treating conditions of the musculoskeletal system—bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles.
They perform procedures ranging from joint replacements to spinal fusions to sports injury repairs: The orthopedic surgeon said I'd need a new hip within five years.
Also spelled orthopaedic, especially in British English.
