The wheel hub has to be removed to change the brake disc as it is bolted to the hub assembly. It would also be a good idea to change (or at least check) the wheel bearings at the same time.
For a competent mechanic it shouldn't be a big job by following a Haynes manual carefully, just remember to change brake components in axle sets as uneven braking may occur.
