DR HAI NGUYEN

HAI NGUYEN, MD FRCS(C)

Orthopedic surgeon
Hip and knee surgeon

With 20 years of experience, Dr. Nguyen dedicated nearly two decades to the practice of orthopedic surgery at Charles-LeMoyne Hospital and Jean-Talon Hospital, where he cared for patients of all ages suffering from degenerative and destructive conditions affecting the hip and knee, before transitioning to full-time private practice in 2025. Driven by a constant goal to relieve pain, restore function, improve quality of life, and minimize complications, Dr. Nguyen has built a career rooted in mastering a wide range of advanced surgical techniques.

He has mastered the anterior, posterior and minimally invasive approaches to the hip. Resurfacing, large-diameter heads and dual-mobility cups are all part of his skill set. For knees, he offers the full range of partial and total replacement options. More recently, he has added computer assistance and robotics to his treatment roster, to be able to offer the precision and reliability that technology brings to surgery. For Dr. Nguyen, all these tools serve to enable him to achieve the ultimate goal of restoring the anatomy of the native joint to its natural, individual motion.

This philosophy of personalized surgery with kinematic alignment is revolutionizing the world of arthroplasty, and Dr Nguyen is one of the leaders. As a clinical assistant professor at the Université de Sherbrooke and the Université de Montréal, he teaches students, residents and colleagues this concept of customized surgery. He also participates in the certification of new surgeons as an examiner at the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

Finally, to improve his patient’s experience of care after surgery, Dr. Nguyen has turned his attention to optimized recovery protocols (ERAS). These latest-generation standardized practices accelerate recovery, shorten hospital stays and reduce surgical complications. This rewarding career path has provided Dr Nguyen with the techniques, technology and ideas to care for his patients in a truly personalized way in every sense of the word.
