"I’ve taken my mother for her access port removal surgery with hundreds of questions in mind which were answered not in words but by putting into actions not just by the Surgeon, Dr. Praveen K Reddy but also each and every staff member. I would like to thank each one of them here for all the support they’ve given to us during these tough times. Dr. Praveen is an amazing person who takes care of his patients as family members. Dr. Praveen’s assistant Mary is one such sweet lady supported us right from the admission through the billing and discharge. The IPD 4th floor team (Floor Manager: Karabi Duty Medical Officer: Dr. Sai Nursing Manager: Nikita) made sure of our comfortable stay in the Hospital which is very rare. Thank you so much team.

A primary joint replacement procedure involves replacing a damaged or diseased joint with an artificial joint, typically made of metal, plastic, or ceramic components. This is commonly done for joints such as the hip, knee, or shoulder.
A revision joint replacement procedure is performed when a previously implanted joint replacement has failed or become worn out. It involves removing the old implant and replacing it with a new one. Revision surgeries are often more complex and may require specialized implants or techniques.
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. It can be used to treat conditions such as torn cartilage, ligament injuries, joint inflammation, and certain types of arthritis.
Cartilage reconstruction involves repairing or replacing damaged cartilage in the joints. This can be done using techniques such as cartilage transplantation, microfracture, or autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI).
Pain management after orthopedic surgery may involve a combination of medications, such as pain relievers and anti-inflammatories, as well as physical therapy, ice therapy, and other non-pharmacological interventions. In some cases, nerve blocks or epidural injections may be used to provide targeted pain relief.
Spinal fixation procedures involve stabilizing the spine using implants such as screws, rods, or plates. These procedures are used to treat conditions such as spinal fractures, deformities, and instability.
