Types of Hip Replacement Surgery Offered
1. Robotic-Assisted Hip Replacement
Robotic-assisted hip replacement uses computer-guided precision to plan implant size, position and alignment before surgery. This reduces variability and can improve implant longevity compared to purely manual techniques.
2. Conventional (Manual) Hip Replacement
Conventional hip replacement remains a safe, well-established option and is recommended based on the patient's anatomy, bone quality, and overall health, following a thorough clinical evaluation.
3. Revision Hip Replacement
For patients whose previous hip implant has failed, loosened, or become infected, Dr. Kazi also performs revision joint replacement surgery, a technically demanding procedure requiring specialised training.
4. Hip Fracture & Trauma Surgery
Elderly patients with hip fractures often require urgent surgical fixation or replacement. Dr. Kazi provides emergency trauma and fracture management to restore mobility quickly and safely.
Signs You May Need Hip Replacement Surgery
Dr. Kazi evaluates patients for hip replacement when they experience:
- Persistent hip pain that limits walking, sitting, or sleeping
- Stiffness that reduces the ability to bend, climb stairs, or wear shoes
