Joint replacement surgery has progressed leaps and bounds in the last couple of decades and is regarded as the most successful surgery in Orthopaedics. There are millions of people around the world who suffer from crippling joint disorders and pain. This form of treatment has really come as a saviour for such patients. The surgical and technological advancement in this field has made it possible to restore painless movement to the affected joint so that the individual can have a normal life after surgery.
More than 200 varieties of arthritis disorders have been described. Most of them can be cured if diagnosed sufficiently early and treated properly. But unfortunately joint pains still remain as neglected symptoms. Patients find relief when using 'over-the-counter' drugs most often prescribed by unqualified or inexperienced persons. This leads to permanent joint destruction and isolation of the person from social and vocational activities.
Joint replacement surgery has come up as a sure shot remedy for such people to come back to active and productive life. The present day joint replacement surgery is well advanced with better understanding of human anatomy, refined surgical techniques and technological advancement in accuracy of instrumentation and design of implants to ensure complete and painless mobility. Computer aided navigation, patient specific knee replacement and robotic knee replacement etc. has made this flawless surgical procedure a reality.
There are number of hospitals across the world that have dedicated services in this surgical procedure. With supreme clinical proficiency and advanced technical facilities to perform all sorts of primary and revision joint replacement surgeries, Aster Medcity has come up as one of the best in India for such treatments.

Obstetric is highly unpredictable and various twists and turns can happen at any point of time. A pregnancy is considered high risk when there are potential complications that could affect the mother, the baby or both. Obstetric medicine has become an integral part of managing women, often the ones that are categorised into high-risk pregnancies.At Aster DM Healthcare, the women's health department has experts that deal with medical problems of pregnant women, and thereby reduce maternal morbidity and mortality with improved perinatal outcomes. A multidisciplinary approach to individual cases leads to high quality and safe maternal care with a sound interdisciplinary knowledge of internal medicine, obstetric and perinatal medicine.
Strict adherence to guidelines and protocols derived from evidence-based medicine is the single most important factor that guides our management of pregnancies. We strongly believe that the keynote of progress is teamwork. The only permanent thing is change.
Gynaecological surgery has evolved over decades from open to minimal access surgery. The most recent innovations in minimal access surgery include robot-assisted surgery. The advantages of this robotic technique are smaller incisions, leading to lower morbidity, less post-operative pain, and shorter hospital stays. The Endo Wrist technology allows surgical manoeuvres that are similar to open surgical techniques and gives an edge in highly complicated procedures when extensive dissection and proper anatomy re-establishment is required. I was fortunate to perform the first robotic assisted gynaecological surgery in Kerala. I have performed robotic-assisted gynaecological surgeries like hysterectomy, myomectomy, ovarian cystectomy, tubal recanalisation etc.
