Procedures

What Pathway offers in Toronto.

Two focus areas in Toronto — sports medicine and joint replacement — each handled by fellowship-trained, Royal College board-certified (FRCSC) surgeons.

Joint replacement

Robotic-assisted knee replacement (ROSA® and VELYS™), partial knee replacement, direct anterior hip replacement, and shoulder replacement.

Sports medicine

Arthroscopic knee, hip, shoulder, and elbow procedures for injuries that keep you from sport and work.

Looking for foot & ankle surgery? Pathway books it through our Hamilton location. Spine procedures are coordinated through our Montreal surgical centres — your consultation can still start in Toronto or by video, and we handle the travel.

FAQ

Toronto patients ask.

Consultations are typically scheduled within 1–4 business days. After your consultation and quote approval, surgery is typically scheduled within 2–4 weeks.
Your care team books your procedure at an accredited private surgical centre in midtown Toronto, or at one of our Montreal-area centres when that better fits your case — travel, hotel, and private car service coordinated when needed.
Procedures at private surgical centres are not covered by OHIP. Many patients use private insurance, employer benefits, or health spending accounts toward eligible costs, and financing is available through Beautifi. You receive a complete written quote before you decide.
No. Referrals are welcome and never required — you can book directly.
