  • Living an active life was always important to me, but constant knee pain threatened to take it all away. Hiking, skiing, and even biking with my friends became increasingly difficult. After exploring various non-surgical options, I decided to pursue knee replacement surgery.
  • Thankfully, my doctor recommended a minimally invasive knee replacement technique. This approach promised benefits like quicker recovery, less pain, and smaller scars. After researching and discussing it with my doctor, I felt confident this was the right option for me.
  • The entire process, from pre-operative assessments to post-surgical rehabilitation, was positive.
  • The surgery itself went well, and I was surprised at how quickly I began to recover. The pain was manageable, and the smaller incision meant significantly less discomfort compared to what I had imagined.
  • Within a few months, I was back on the trails with my friends, pain-free and enjoying the outdoors once again. I'm incredibly grateful to my doctor and the entire surgical team for their expertise, the innovative techniques used, and the excellent care they provided.

  • For years, chronic knee pain had me sidelined. Simple activities like walking, climbing stairs, and even playing with my grandchildren became monumental tasks. After exhausting conservative treatments, I finally opted for a total knee replacement. But I was hesitant about the traditional procedure and its potential limitations.
  • Fortunately, I learned about Dr. Sourabh Chachan and his expertise in robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery. This innovative technique promised improved accuracy, faster recovery, and potentially better long-term outcomes. After thorough consultations and a positive feeling about Dr. Chachan's approach, I decided to move forward.
  • The entire experience, from pre-surgery consultations to post-operative care, was exceptional. Dr. Chachan and his team were incredibly patient, informative, and supportive throughout the process. They addressed all my concerns, explaining the robotic technology and its benefits in detail.
  • The surgery itself went smoothly, and thanks to the robotic assistance, my recovery was much quicker and smoother than I anticipated. The pain was significantly less than what I had expected, and I regained mobility much faster than with a traditional procedure.
  • I'm now pain-free and enjoying activities I haven't been able to do in years. Walking, hiking, and even gardening are no longer challenges, but rather sources of joy.
  • If you're considering knee replacement surgery, I highly recommend exploring the benefits of robotic-assisted techniques and consulting with Dr. Chachan. He truly gave me a new lease on life!
