Are you struggling to walk short distances—like from your car to the office? Has the simple joy of a morning walk in the park become painful? If chronic hip pain is controlling your daily life, you’re not alone.
As a joint replacement surgeon with over 30 years of experience, I’ve seen how the right intervention can truly turn back the clock on aging hip joints. Today, with the integration of robotic technology, hip replacement surgery has become more precise, predictable, and patient-specific than ever before.
Surgery is never the first option, but when conservative treatments fail, it often becomes the most effective solution. You may be a candidate for hip replacement if you experience:
Persistent pain – Hip pain even at rest or during the night
Limited mobility – Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, putting on socks, or getting up from a chair
Stiffness – A grinding sensation or significantly reduced range of motion
Failure of other treatments – Physiotherapy and medications no longer provide relief
Many patients ask, “Doctor, why should I choose robotic hip replacement?”
The answer is simple: unmatched precision and personalization.
Robotic-assisted surgery allows me to:
Personalize your surgical plan
A detailed 3D virtual model of your hip is created before surgery, tailored to your unique anatomy.
Achieve pinpoint accuracy
The robotic system assists in implant placement with sub-millimeter precision, ensuring proper alignment and balanced leg length.
Preserve healthy tissues
Greater accuracy means less damage to surrounding muscles and soft tissues, often resulting in less pain and faster recovery.
A common myth is that hip replacement means months of bed rest. In reality, we focus on early mobilization and faster return to independence.
Day 1: Most patients stand and take a few steps within hours of surgery
Day 3: Discharged from the hospital—walking and confident
Week 1–2: Use of a walker or cane as muscles regain strength
1 Month: Return to light daily activities and driving
3 Months & Beyond: Resume travel, low-impact sports, and a pain-free active life
Choosing hip replacement surgery is a major decision. With three decades of surgical experience and the precision of robotic-assisted technology, my goal is to help you regain mobility, independence, and quality of life—safely and efficiently.
