Recovery from knee replacement generally takes a long time as it involves extensive physiotherapy after the surgery. Complications during any stage of the treatment can lead to failure of the treatment and necessitate re-surgery. So, you must be in touch with the best knee replacement surgeon for you to ensure there are no complications.
Follow the given tips to choose the best knee replacement surgeon for you:
In the beginning stages, most patients only need pain management and physiotherapy. However, before you decide whether you need to undergo surgery, you must check your doctor’s qualifications, especially if they are a general practitioner, family doctor, or local orthopedic specialist in your neighborhood.
You must ensure that your doctor is medically qualified to perform your surgery. Knee replacements are performed by experienced orthopedic surgeons, so general and family practitioners can’t provide the surgery to you. Instead, you need to contact an experienced orthopedic surgeon near you.
Make sure that they at least have a postgraduate specialization degree, i.e., MD, MS, or DNB in orthopedics medical specialty.
Once you’ve ensured that your treatment provider is an orthopedist, you should check their surgical credentials. Most orthopedic surgeons are trained in performing open joint surgeries but need special training and certification to perform minimally invasive or arthroscopic joint replacement surgery.
Arthroscopic joint replacement surgery will provide you with a quicker recovery time, i.e., you will regain joint function and mobility much faster. Before the surgery, make sure you discuss all your surgical options with your orthopedist.
There are various subspecialties within the field of orthopedic medicine. You must ensure that your surgeon is proficient in joint replacement surgery and, by extension, knee replacement. An experienced surgeon with a history of successful knee replacement surgeries is more likely to provide you with a flawless surgical experience than a less experienced surgeon.
Orthopedic surgeons at Pristyn Care have specialisation in various types of knee surgeries such as such as Total Knee Replacement, Robotic Knee Replacement, Partial Knee Replacement, Meniscus Surgery, ACL Surgery, Knee Arthroscopy, etc.
Even the best orthopedic surgeon can only do something if they have a good infrastructure. So make sure your orthopedic surgeon is associated with a quality hospital or clinic with a well-furnished orthopedic wing.
The best way to evaluate the doctor’s expertise is to review their patient reviews. Look for their profile online and read reviews from previous patients. A doctor’s expertise is always reflected in their patient’s opinions about them.
Learn About Their Insurance Regulations
Knee replacement is an expensive procedure, especially with the accompanying physiotherapy. If you have health insurance, it relieves the financial burden of the treatment. Make sure your orthopedic surgeon and hospital accept health insurance.
Do not hesitate to ask questions to your knee surgeon. A good surgeon will answer your questions without any hesitation. Clear all doubts related to the surgery. Some questions you can ask your orthopedic surgeon are:
Part of recovery after extensive surgeries like knee replacement is psychological. So, you must be psychologically prepared for the surgery and its after-effects.

Knee replacement surgery becomes necessary when you are in constant pain throughout the day, despite taking pain medication, and you are unable to walk even short distances without considerable difficulty. In such cases, the knee joint becomes so worn or damaged that your mobility becomes very limited, and you are in pain even while resting.
Health conditions that cause knee joint damage and degeneration, necessitating knee replacement surgery include:
Take the right approach to treatment and consult an orthopedic specialist as soon as possible. You can avoid total joint replacement if you contact a doctor early enough. Your surgeon can perform partial knee replacement surgery in such cases.
If you identify with any of the given symptoms, you should immediately seek proper treatment from the appropriate doctors. Your orthopedic specialist will examine your knee joint anatomy and function to determine the best treatment for you.
Knee replacement is performed primarily to relieve the knee pain and joint stiffness caused by the conditions described above. If you’ve already tried all options for conservative management of knee pain but haven’t received adequate relief from any of them, then it is a sign that you need surgical intervention.
If you are experiencing the following symptoms, then it is a sign that you should consult your orthopedist for knee replacement surgery:
Don’t lose hope. The right doctor will be able to manage all these issues successfully and restore your lifestyle as you need it. This is why doctor selection is such an important part of the treatment process. Don’t be hasty and compare all your choices before settling on the final one. Make sure to get a second or third opinion if you aren’t satisfied with your current option.

My mother suffered from severe knee pain and her daily activities were challenging. We contacted Dr. Sourabh Kulkarni. After consultation with the doctor he recommended right knee replacement surgery and the results were remarkable. After the surgery, in an astonishing 20 days, my mother is walking independently and without any pain or support.
