Dr. Scott Faucett selected as the face of Hip Preservation in Washington D.C. by the Washingtonian for four consecutive years.
In the ever-evolving world of orthopaedic medicine, specialized care is the key to maintaining an active, pain-free lifestyle. We are thrilled to announce that for the fourth consecutive year, Dr. Scott Faucett has been recognized by The Washingtonian as the “Face of Hip Preservation” in Washington, D.C.
This prestigious accolade highlights Dr. Faucett’s dedication to pioneering treatments that keep patients moving without the immediate need for major joint replacement.
What is Hip Preservation?
For many active individuals, hip pain doesn’t have to mean a total hip replacement is on the horizon. Hip preservation is a specialized field focused on diagnosing and treating conditions like hip impingement (FAI), labral tears, and hip dysplasia using minimally invasive techniques.
By addressing these issues early through advanced arthroscopic surgery and regenerative medicine, Dr. Faucett helps patients “preserve” their natural joint, delay the onset of arthritis, and return to the sports and activities they love.
A Legacy of Excellence in the Nation’s Capital
Being named the Face of Hip Preservation four years in a row is more than just an award—it is a reflection of a patient-first philosophy. Dr. Faucett’s approach combines:
- Ivy League Training: A foundation built at Dartmouth Medical School and residency.
- Elite Sports Expertise: Insights gained from a prestigious fellowship at the Steadman Clinic and serving as a physician for the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team.
- Innovation: As the Director of the Hip Preservation Center at George Washington University Hospital, Dr. Faucett stays at the forefront of surgical research and technology.
Why This Recognition Matters to You
When you choose a specialist who is consistently recognized by peers and leading publications like The Washingtonian, you are choosing a standard of care that is vetted and respected. Whether you are a high-level athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone simply looking to walk the National Mall without pain, Dr. Faucett’s goal remains the same: to provide the most sophisticated, least invasive care possible.
We want to thank our patients for their continued trust and The Washingtonian for this honor. Here’s to many more years of keeping D.C. on the move!
