Hip Surgeries We Offer
Hip Arthroscopy
Persistent groin pain, sharp pinches, or a hip that frequently “catches” can signal hidden joint damage that’s worsening. Dr. Mehta treats these issues with hip arthroscopy, using tiny incisions and a camera to relieve pain and restore movement with minimal downtime.
Total Hip Replacement
When hip arthritis becomes severe enough that walking, sleeping, or standing feels unbearable, it may be time for a permanent fix. Dr. Mehta, an expert hip surgeon in San Jose, offers total hip replacement using durable implants and precise techniques to restore smooth movement and get you back to living pain-free.
Partial Hip Replacement
A sudden fall or fracture can turn into a major setback, especially for older adults. In these cases, Dr. Mehta may recommend a partial hip replacement in Los Gatos, replacing only the damaged ball of the joint to speed up recovery and reduce surgical strain without compromising results.
Hip Resurfacing
If you’re younger and active but facing early hip damage, full replacement may feel too aggressive. That’s where hip resurfacing comes in. Dr. Mehta preserves more of your natural bone while capping the joint with smooth, durable material, allowing easy movement.
Hip Revision Surgery
An old hip replacement shouldn’t become a new source of pain. If your implant has worn out, loosened, or failed, Dr. Mehta offers hip revision surgery tailored to your anatomy and previous surgical history, restoring strength, function, and confidence with expert care.
Fracture Surgery
Hip fractures can’t wait as they’re painful, limiting, and risky if left untreated. Dr. Mehta performs fracture repair surgery using advanced fixation methods (like screws, rods, or plates) to stabilize the bone and support a safe, steady recovery.

Testimonials
From the moment I walked into her office, I was impressed by how Dr. Mehta listened to my history of hip pain and promptly ordered an X-ray. What had taken me months and ultimately unsuccessful with Kaiser was accomplished in mere minutes with Dr. Mehta. The office is well-equipped with X-ray facilities, so I received my results quickly.
I highly recommend Dr. Mehta for anyone seeking orthopedic care. Her kindness, efficiency, and exceptional skill have been instrumental in my recovery and overall well-being. Although I would prefer to avoid any future injuries at least I have a doctor I can trust to help any way she can, even if that's referring me to a different specialist. In an era where it can feel like you're just another number in line Dr Mehta is offering true healthcare. Thank you Dr Mehta and everyone at Resilience Orthopedics!

EXCELLENT Based on 166 reviews Posted on Kevin and Harjeet JandaJune 20, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Pamela was amazing. She was so thorough and knowledgeable, and when my son got injured, she acted quickly instead of taking a wait-and-see approach. Her team got us in for an X-ray the very same day, which I really appreciated. What stood out most was that she took the time to really understand what happened and what was causing the problem. I never felt rushed during our appointment. She listened, answered all of our questions, and made us feel like we were her only patients. That level of attention and care is hard to find these days. Everyone in the office was professional, kind, and efficient. As soon as the imaging results were ready, Dr. Pamela personally called to go over everything, explain the plan, and discuss the next steps. I would recommend her to anyone looking for orthopedic care. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely kind, and you can tell she truly cares about her patients and their families. She truly cares from the heart, and it shows.Posted on Sherri DoddMay 20, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So thankful to have been recommended to Dr. Mehta a few years ago! My first experience with her was the meniscus surgery, which she performed perfectly, and I was back to my former fitness level in a short time! What she has helped me with even more are my low back problems, including three bulging discs and stenosis. I’ve had three stem cell injections over the years. (In the middle of these, I tried a different procedure with a different provider, and it was awful!) Had my most recent injection yesterday and the relief was immediate! My son has also been to her for a sports shoulder injury and my husband with his knee. We really appreciate Dr. Mehta, her expertise, and the helpful people she has chosen for her office!Posted on Andrew FergusonApril 24, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear Dr. Mehta, Thank you for your wonderful care. Age and injuries often times create a long road back, requiring more patience than I would like. Since your PRP injection — (Platelet-Rich Plasma) I have road a mountain bike, hard. I’ve ridden my peloton, hard. I’ve surfed big waves. I’ve hiked uphill with a weight vest, far. I’ve done yoga, but I had not run… Titled: I ran today. I ran today. Not far, But I ran. Not fast, But I ran. Walk/run intervals, but I ran. Andddddd Pain free 5 minute ice plunge after No Advil needed Cautiously optimistic with spring in my step.
