Degenerative arthritis is most common in the Knee joint. We have a Comprehensive Knee Care approach for Knee arthritis. Patients are offered a variety of solutions depending on their age and stage of arthritis. For severe cases, knee replacement surgery provides an immediate solution.
At Doshi Orthopaedic, we perform more than hundred knee replacement surgeries in a year. We are the pioneering center for Unicompartmental knee replacement surgery (Partial knee replacement) in the region. The state of art modular operation theatre ensures a very smooth and safe surgical procedure. Our Joint replacement team led by Dr Ajay Shah and Dr. Kunal Shah have performed numerous complex and revision Knee replacement procedures. These surgeries have been performed in a wide variety of age groups ranging from 35 years to 85 years.
Usually the Patient is admitted one day prior to the surgery. The surgical procedure lasts for approximately one hour. The patient is made to walk 12 hours after the surgery and is usually discharged on the fifth day after surgery. Dr Kunal Shah has devised a protocol which ensures early mobilisation and pain-free post surgical period. In most cases patient can play light sports and even squat and sit cross-legged a few months after surgery.
Patients whose first joint replacement surgery has failed for some reason have also come to us. We have got good results from Revision Knee Replacements. These patients who have lost all hope of getting back to normal have really benefited and become independent in their day-to-day life. These procedures are complex and require a high deal of planning and preparation. We have the topmost implants in our armamentarium, and this helps in providing the optimum fit so necessary in Revision surgeries.
