Who is it for?
- Knee pain from osteoarthritis that limits walking, stairs, prayer or sleep
- Pain that continues despite medicine, physiotherapy or injections
- Stiffness or deformity of the knee confirmed on X-ray
The process
- 1. Consultation
Dr. Sartawi examines your knee, reviews your history and X-rays, and explains whether surgery is the right option or whether non-surgical care should come first. - 2. Planning
Imaging and pre-operative tests are arranged. For a custom 3D knee, a CT scan of your knee is used to design the implant. - 3. Surgery
The operation is performed at King's College Hospital London – Dubai Hills, using Dr. Sartawi's muscle- and tendon-sparing technique where suitable. - 4. Early walking
Patients are encouraged to stand and walk with support soon after surgery, guided by the physiotherapy team. - 5. Follow-up
Review visits check the wound, movement and strength until you are back to your daily life.
Recovery
Recovery is different for every patient and depends on age, general health and the condition of the knee. Physiotherapy starts early, and most of the work in the following weeks is regaining movement and strength at home. Dr. Sartawi will give you a personal recovery plan at your consultation, including when to return to driving, work, travel and prayer.
