From early-stage stiffness to advanced arthritis, Dr. Chanda evaluates every hip case on its own merits — and only recommends surgery when conservative care truly can't help.
Generally once conservative treatments — physiotherapy, medication, injections — stop providing relief and pain begins to limit daily activities like walking or climbing stairs. Imaging showing significant joint space loss supports the decision, alongside your symptoms.
No — the majority of patients Dr. Chanda sees are managed without surgery. Only around 15% go on to need an operation, after non-surgical options have been fully explored.
It's a technique that uses real-time imaging and tracking during surgery to position implants with greater precision, which can improve alignment and the long-term life of the implant.
Most patients begin walking with support within a day of surgery, and return to most daily activities over 6–12 weeks with a structured physiotherapy programme, though full recovery can take a few months.
