Degenerative arthritis of knee has always been the commonest amongst arthritis of all kinds. In Hong Kong, up to 40% of population aging over 65 years old suffer from certain degree of knee pain and degenerative knee arthritis, which affect their daily living. The newly established Joint Replacement Clinic at EKMC aims at providing the most sophisticated and holistic care for patients with degenerative joint conditions, in terms of both diagnosis and treatment.
The Joint Replacement Clinic is led by the Director, a specialist orthopaedic surgeon with vast experience in management of joint diseases and joint replacement surgery. Together with our dedicated nurses and physiotherapists, we form a multi-disciplinary team to provide individualized management for every single patient, including both non-surgical or surgical treatment options.
Since year 2024, the Hong Kong Baptist Hospital has installed the robotic-arm assisted total knee replacement surgery system. Robotic-arm assisted surgery can increase the surgical accuracy and facilitate the recovery of patients after receiving knee replacement surgery. This serves as a premium option for patients who require surgical treatment for their knee arthritis.
