What Is Knee Replacement Surgery?

Knee replacement surgery replaces a damaged knee joint with an artificial one to reduce pain and improve movement. If you have long-term knee pain or stiffness that’s affecting your daily life, this procedure can help you move more freely and get back to the activities you enjoy.

"In knee replacement surgery, precision is the difference between 'good' and 'life-changing.' By combining
the Velys™ Robotic system with our ERAS pathways, we are providing patients in Glasgow with a level of
care and recovery speed that was once reserved for only the top specialist clinics in the world.” 

— Colin Drury, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
