Knee Replacement or
arthroplasty- is a common procedure these days that women and men often need in
old age. What the surgery involves is the replacement of a person's knee cap
with a plastic prosthetic. The surgery needs to be performed by an experienced orthopedic
surgeon because of the intricacies involved and as routine as the procedure is,
it is of utmost importance that the surgeon is credible.
Mr. Ratan Shah, who had just
moved from Mumbai to Chennai with his family, called us to inquire about the surgery.
His father, Mr. Hitesh Shah, was suffering from acute osteoarthritis which had
led to the cartilage tissue of his knee to get dried up and had consequently
caused damage to his knee cap. This was a huge matter of concern for the
family, who was neither aware of the process nor the best and advisable doctors
and costs. This is why they reached out to Credihealth.
The procedure, as we
explained to them, required the doctor to put a prosthesis which is ideally
made up of a combination of metal and plastics that needs to fit with the knee
cap. There can be complications depending on the age of the patient , but can
be easily avoided if proper care is taken. Ratan was satisfied with the
information & details and asked to find the best orthopedic surgeon for
knee replacement in Chennai. It has been over 3 months since the surgery and
Ratan's father is fit and fine. He enjoys short walks in the garden and looks
forward to discovering the city on foot soon.
