PATIENT TESTIMONIALS
I had so many people tell me about pain after Knee Replacement Surgery. But my experience was totally different; I walked on the same day after the surgery without assistance and never had any pain since then. I can’t believe that Knee Replacement Surgery would be so easy.

mrs. rukmini sawant
The pain had got to a point where it was disturbing my daily activities and sometimes also sleep. I was home bound when all my family members went out for any celebration. I spoke to a few patients who had been operated earlier under Dr. Bakul Arora and they encouraged me to trust him. I underwent a surgery with positive mind. Now I walk daily 1.5 km with no pain.
mrs. kamlaben thakkar
My first condition with Dr. Bakul Arora was “No Blood Transfusion” in my Knee Replacement Surgery and he promised me that, I have been quite impressed with the technique he performed on me. It is a technique that I hope and anticipate will revolutionize the next generation of Knee Replacement. I am so thankful to be living pain free and reliving my football days……
