About this business
My surgical practice teaches me that technical skill is the mastery of the complex. It takes years and a lot of listening and experience to understand the nuances of joint resurfacing and replacement surgery. Surgical technique is not a commodity that can be bought or sold. I look carefully at my outcomes and publish my results in peer reviewed journals. Survivorship of a patient and implant is not synonym for true wellness. Resumption of a completely autonomous lifestyle and return to all activities is the goal. My favorite... read more

I had a hip resurfacing in 2018. Up there with one of the worst experiences I’ve ever gone through-am still going through. The muscle they cut was damaged. At my follow up he completely dismissed me and said it was fine. In the chart notes he says I had concerns about muscle but it’s fine. I still cannot lift my leg to get dressed and many other things. I’m in chronic pain now. Also, learned women should not have hip resurfacing. Most surgeons will not even do it on women. He is arrogant with no compassion. I would’ve been b... read more
I was living with a knee that I couldn’t run on at all for many years. Now I am back out there playing frisbee ultimate five days a week and can push it pretty hard! My knee hasn’t felt this good for over a decade.
For over two years I had chronic hip pain. Went to chrioprator, cortisone and stem cell injections. I had paid $1700 for shoe inserts and acupuncture. By the time I saw Dr. Pritchett I had spent 25k out of pocket to relieve my pain. Nothing worked. I had my procedure done on April 27th 2022. My life is already improved I am doing things I haven't able to for 2 yrs. Best decision I have ever made. Other orthopedic doctors said I was too young for this procedure had I not found Dr. Pritchett I would still be in pain.
Dr. Pritchett and his staff have a great standard process for hip resurfacing. I was well informed and understood what was needed from me in support of the entire surgical process. From there their talents and methods along with the surgery team at the Swedish Orthopedic Institute made for an excellent experience. Coming from out of state to obtain what I believe is the most technically advanced hip by a top surgeon the care and process exceeded my expectations. Thank you Dr Pritchett and team!
10 yrs. ago he bungled a total hip replacement on my right hip. I have had 3 additional total hip surgeries to repair his work. I have been suffering with this for the last 10 yrs.
This man is the epitome of arrogance and is completely self absorbed. His ability to relate to a prospective patient is missing in action.
Excellent, professional, very competent
Dr. Pritchett has treated me for shoulder/rotator cuff and knee/medial meniscus problems and is a superb provider. He has also treated family members for knee problems and likewise is a go to specialist.
I saw Dr. Pritchett in October of 2017 for an evaluation of my right hip. He ordered two X-Rays and just based on them declared that I had hip dysplasia in both hips and referred me to two other physicians that specialize in hip dysplasia. Very concerned with this diagnosis, I saw two other hip specialists for a second opinion (including one referred by Dr. Pritchett) and, after thorough exams, additional X-Rays and an MRI with contrast of the right hip, both disagreed with Dr. Pritchett's diagnosis. Aside from diagnosing me... read more
