Orthopedic and Joint Replacement Care Approach
Orthopedic treatment depends on the cause of pain, severity of joint damage, mobility, imaging findings, previous treatment, and the patient’s general health.
Dr. Dhar’s work has a strong focus on joint reconstruction and replacement. Knee or hip replacement may be considered when advanced arthritis or structural joint damage causes significant pain and reduced daily function despite appropriate non-surgical treatment.
His current practice also includes robotic-assisted joint replacement. Robotic systems can help the surgical team plan bone preparation and implant positioning based on the individual patient’s anatomy. The decision to use robotic or conventional techniques depends on the clinical situation and available surgical options.
Not every orthopedic condition requires an operation. Medication, physiotherapy, activity modification, rehabilitation, or other conservative measures may be considered before surgery when appropriate.
