Best Knee Replacement Surgeon in Chennai

Patients from Chennai considering knee replacement surgery often want a second opinion from a specialist with strong academic and surgical credentials before making a final decision. Dr. Naveen Sharma — MS Orthopaedics from KEM Hospital Mumbai, fellowship-trained in joint replacement from Germany — offers knee replacement evaluation in Jaipur for patients from Chennai, covering diagnosis confirmation, implant planning, and structured outstation care.

Symptoms that suggest it is time to consult

If you are from Chennai and experiencing continuous knee pain that disturbs sleep, inability to walk more than a short distance without stopping, significant swelling around the joint, visible bowing or knock-knee deformity, or repeated failure of injections and physiotherapy — a specialist evaluation is the appropriate next step.

Surgical approach and implant discussion

Dr. Naveen Sharma uses a systematic approach to knee replacement — reviewing alignment on standing X-rays, assessing ligament integrity, and discussing implant options including standard, high-flex, and cruciate-retaining designs. The goal is to match implant selection to the patient's age, activity level, and bone anatomy rather than using a one-size-fits-all choice.

How to prepare for your visit from Chennai

Before travelling from Chennai, share your standing bilateral knee X-rays, any MRI reports, blood investigations including CBC, blood sugar, and kidney function, and a list of medications. This allows pre-visit review and means the consultation can focus on surgical decision-making rather than initial data collection. Most patients require only one trip for consultation and surgery together.

Going home and continuing recovery

Patients from Chennai typically return home within a week of surgery. A detailed rehabilitation protocol is provided covering physiotherapy exercises, walking targets, stair management, medication schedule, and warning signs to watch for. Remote follow-up is available via WhatsApp and video call. Clinic: AOSIH, E-7, Hanuman Path, Near Metro Pillar 95, New Sanganer Road, Sodala, Jaipur 302019.

Frequently asked questions

Is knee replacement a permanent solution?

Modern knee implants are designed to last fifteen to twenty years or more with appropriate activity levels and weight management. Revision surgery may be needed in some cases after that period.

Can I sit cross-legged after knee replacement?

High-flex implants allow greater bending and some patients can sit cross-legged or use Indian-style toilets after complete recovery. This is discussed during implant selection based on individual anatomy and goals.

How long should I plan to stay in Jaipur?

Plan for seven to ten days in Jaipur if combining consultation and surgery in one trip. This includes pre-operative workup, surgery, hospital stay, and initial post-operative recovery before travel home.
