Do I Need Knee and Do I Need Hip Surgery?
If you're experiencing persistent pain, limited movement, or difficulty with daily activities despite trying other treatments like physical therapy or medications, you may need knee or hip surgery.
Surgery can relieve pain and improve function, especially if arthritis or injury has caused significant joint damage.

Robotic knee surgery and computer-navigated hip replacement surgery use advanced technology to enhance precision during joint replacement procedures.
Robotic knee surgery allows the surgeon to create a 3D model of your knee, ensuring the perfect fit for the new joint. Computer-navigated hip replacement provides real-time data, helping the surgeon place the hip implant accurately.
Both methods improve outcomes, reduce recovery time, and increase joint function. These technologies offer patients better alignment, less pain, and a quicker return to normal activities.
