What is Joint Replacement Surgery?
Joint replacement is a procedure wherein a damaged or worn-out joint is replaced by an artificial one known as a prosthesis. This surgery is usually performed on people whose joints have been severely damaged due to arthritis, injury, or wear and tear that causes chronic pain, swelling, and limited movement. It is aimed at restoring mobility, reducing suffering, and improving the quality of life for the patients.

- Chronic Joint Pain that doesn’t respond to medication or therapy.
- Difficulty in Movement, such as walking, climbing stairs, or getting in and out of chairs.
- Stiffness and swelling in the joints impact daily activities.
- Limited Range of Motion making it hard to complete basic tasks.
- Advanced Arthritis (Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis) causing joint damage.
- Joint Injury or Trauma leading to long-term pain and disability.
Kinds of Joint Replacement Surgeries We Provide
Knee Replacement Surgery
Serious knee pain may make it impossible for you to pursue daily activities. Damage due to arthritis and injury to your knee joint can make the possibility of operating without suffering even more impossible. A knee replacement is a surgical procedure often necessary to restore mobility and relieve pain for patients suffering from damage to their knee joint due to arthritis or other types of injuries. We perform Total Knee Replacement in which the entire knee joint is replaced with artificial parts and Partial Knee Replacement in which only the damaged portion of the knee is replaced, thereby saving good tissue. Knee replacement surgery offers numerous benefits for individuals suffering from chronic knee pain and limited mobility. By replacing the damaged parts of the knee with artificial components, the procedure can cause significant or complete relief from pain, improve joint function, and enhance overall quality of life. In our observation and as per the results post-surgery over the years, patients often experience greater ease in performing daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and standing, which may have been difficult or impossible before surgery. Moreover, knee replacement helps in correcting deformities and improves the alignment of the knee, which results in good balance and posture. Current surgical techniques also ensure a faster recovery, long-lasting results, and a high success rate, allowing patients to return to their favorite hobbies and enjoy an active lifestyle with minimal discomfort.

Hip Replacement Surgery
Painful conditions such as osteoarthritis or hip fractures can be treated with a hip replacement, which offers the patient long-term relief from serious hip pain. We have Total Hip Replacement where a strong prosthesis is used to replace the hip joint, and Revision Hip Surgery for those requiring corrections on previous hip surgeries. Hip replacement surgery provides a lot of benefits that can change the lives of patients. In most of the cases we’ve treated and observed over the years, we’ve observed that hip replacement surgery effectively removes chronic hip pain, restoring comfort and allowing people to enjoy their daily activities once again. The procedure significantly improves mobility, allowing patients to walk, bend, and engage in various activities with ease. Many thus experience an enhanced quality of life post the surgery, regaining independence and developing a more positive outlook. Modern prosthetics are also built to last, and when properly cared for, they can last for decades, thus ensuring long-term benefits and peace of mind.

Shoulder Replacement Surgery
The best course of treatment often is shoulder replacement surgery if the persistent pain interferes with your range of motion or ability to lift. We offer a Total Shoulder Replacement, which replaces the entire shoulder joint, affording relief from pain and restoring motion, and a Reverse Shoulder Replacement, which we use in patients who have damaged rotator cuffs. Shoulder replacement surgery provides multiple benefits, such as significant relief from chronic pain, improved range of motion, and enhanced shoulder strength and function. Replacing damaged joint surfaces with sturdy prosthetics restores smooth movement, allowing patients to raise objects and perform daily activities with ease. Over the years, in multiple cases we’ve observed that it improves quality of life as a whole, where people can resume their activities with the absence of pain or limited movement. Current surgical techniques also enable faster recovery and longer-lasting results, while options like total or reverse shoulder replacement are designed to meet specific conditions such as arthritis or rotator cuff damage. The surgery prevents further deterioration of the joint, providing a comprehensive solution to restore comfort, functionality, and independence.
