Joint Replacement Surgery Consultation (Knee/Hip)
When arthritis becomes severe, joint surfaces can wear out and cause constant pain, stiffness, and reduced walking ability. For some patients, joint replacement becomes the most effective option
To regain mobility and reduce long-term pain, this service provides complete guidance for knee or hip replacement evaluation, including diagnosis, decision support, preparation, and recovery planning.
Evaluation begins with a detailed review of symptoms such as pain severity, walking distance, stiffness, night pain, swelling, deformity, and impact on daily routine. A clinical examination is performed to assess joint stability, alignment, range of movement, muscle strength, and gait. X-rays are typically reviewed to understand the extent of joint damage. Based on findings, a clear explanation is provided regarding arthritis stage and whether replacement is appropriate now or if other options can be tried first.
This consultation also covers:
- Who is a suitable candidate for joint replacement
- Expected benefits including mobility improvement and pain reduction
- Recovery process and the role of physiotherapy
- Hospital stay planning and realistic timelines
- Precautions and lifestyle changes after surgery
This service is designed to provide clarity without pressure. If joint replacement is not immediately necessary, guidance is provided on alternatives such as physiotherapy, pain control, activity modification, and strengthening programs.
If joint replacement is recommended, guidance is provided on pre-operative fitness, preparation, and post-operative rehabilitation goals. The focus remains on patient safety and long-term outcomes to support confident decision-making and recovery.
This service is suitable for patients with:
- Advanced knee or hip arthritis
- Severe pain affecting daily life
- Reduced walking capacity
- Deformity or significant stiffness
- Failure of conservative treatment
