Knee Replacement Surgery
Knee replacement surgery, also known as Knee Arthroplasty, is a procedure aimed at restoring comfort and mobility by replacing a damaged knee joint with a prosthetic implant. It provides a lasting solution for individuals suffering from chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or injury-related joint deterioration. For those experiencing severe pain, stiffness, or limited mobility, knee replacement offers an effective way to regain movement and improve quality of life.
When is Knee Replacement Surgery Done?
Knee replacement surgery is usually performed when:
- Severe knee pain limits everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or getting in and out of chairs.
- Pain persists even at rest.
- Swelling and inflammation in the knee persist despite medications and other treatments.
- Non-surgical treatments (medications, physical therapy, lifestyle changes) have not been effective.

Our Patients have happy stories to say
we’re here to answer all your questions about knee replacement surgery
Yes, knee replacement surgery is considered a safe and effective procedure. It is widely performed with a high success rate and can significantly improve mobility and reduce pain. While all surgeries carry some risks, advancements in surgical techniques and post-operative care help to minimize these.
Most insurance plans, typically cover knee replacement surgery when it’s deemed medically necessary. However, coverage may vary by provider, so it’s best to confirm details with your insurance company, including any co-pays, deductibles, or prior authorization requirements.
While knee replacement is generally safe, risks include infection, blood clots, implant loosening or wear, nerve injury, and, rarely, complications from anesthesia. Don't worry, our surgeons & medical team are with you & following their advise and post-surgery care instructions can help mitigate risks.
Most patients experience significant improvements in mobility and are able to walk without pain after recovery. Physical therapy and rehabilitation are essential for regaining strength and movement, and most people are able to resume normal walking within a few weeks.
During the recovery process, you will experience some discomfort and swelling, which is normal. Physical therapy will be essential to restore mobility, strength, and flexibility. Full recovery may take several months, but most patients can resume daily activities in a few weeks.
