What Is Robotic Joint Replacement?
Joint replacement removes a damaged or worn joint and replaces it with an artificial implant, so you can move with less pain. In robotic-assisted joint replacement, your surgeon uses an advanced robotic system as a tool to plan the surgery and guide the placement of the implant.
The robot does not operate on its own. Your surgeon stays in control at every step, while the system helps with accurate measurements and positioning that suit your own body.
Our robotic joint replacement service is led by Dr. Udaykumar C. Guled, Director, Chief Orthopaedic Surgeon and Robotic Joint Replacement Surgeon.
Why Choose Robotic-Assisted Joint Replacement?

Precise Planning
Your joint is carefully assessed and the surgery is planned around your own anatomy before the implant is placed.
Surgeon in Control
The robotic system assists your surgeon, who guides every step of the procedure from start to finish.
Accurate Implant Positioning
The system helps position the implant with accuracy, which supports a better fit and natural joint movement.
