Total Knee Replacement (TKR)

For patients suffering from severe arthritis or extensive joint degeneration, Dr. Sudhir Reddy expertly performs Primary Arthroplasty of the Knee. Moving beyond traditional methods, he incorporates highly specialized techniques into his practice, including Minimally Invasive Arthroplasty and Computer Navigated Arthroplasty. These advanced approaches allow for maximum surgical precision and optimal implant alignment while minimizing surrounding tissue disruption. The result is a highly successful, durable joint replacement that restores full mobility and relieves chronic pain, allowing patients to regain their active lifestyles.

Unicondylar (Partial) Knee Replacement

Dr. Sudhir Reddy believes in targeted, patient-specific surgical interventions.
