Which Joint Is Causing Your Pain?

Pain felt at the knee itself, worse on stairs, bending, or after walking. Stiffness, swelling, or a bone-on-bone grinding feeling.
Knee Replacement Surgery in PuneHip or Groin Pain
Pain felt in the groin, outer hip or thigh, worse with walking, putting on shoes, or getting up from a low chair. Stiffness getting in and out of a car.
Hip Replacement Surgery in PuneNot sure which joint it is, or dealing with pain in both? A clinical assessment and X-ray with Dr. Ankkur will confirm the source and the right option, surgical or otherwise.
Traditional vs Robotic-Assisted Replacement
Available for both knee and hip surgery at our clinics. Dr. Ankkur recommends the approach that genuinely suits you, not the more expensive one by default.
Traditional Surgery
A well-proven manual technique, performed for decades with strong long-term outcomes. Typically a longer hospital stay and recovery period.
Robotic-Assisted Surgery
3D surgical planning and a robotic arm for millimetre-accurate implant placement, through a smaller incision, typically less pain and a faster return to walking.
Robotic assistance is currently offered for knee replacement at our clinics. See the full robotic knee replacement comparison, recovery timeline and cost →

Joint Replacement Surgery - Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need knee or hip replacement?
The location of your pain is usually the clearest sign. Knee replacement addresses pain at the knee joint itself, while hip replacement addresses pain felt in the groin, outer hip or thigh. An X-ray and clinical assessment with Dr. Ankkur will confirm the source and whether replacement is the right option.
What is the difference between traditional and robotic joint replacement?
Robotic-assisted surgery uses 3D planning and a robotic arm for millimetre-accurate implant placement through a smaller incision, typically meaning less pain and a faster recovery. Traditional surgery is a well-proven manual technique that remains the right choice for many patients. Robotic assistance is currently offered for knee replacement at our clinics.
How much does joint replacement cost in Pune?
At our clinics, traditional knee replacement starts from ₹1,50,000, robotic knee replacement starts from ₹2,50,000, and hip replacement (DAA MIS) ranges from approximately ₹2,50,000 to ₹4,50,000, depending on implant type and hospital stay.
Can both knees or both hips be replaced at the same time?
In select cases, yes. This is discussed and planned individually with Dr. Ankkur based on your health, age and the clinical assessment.
Do you treat patients from Pimple Saudagar and the PCMC area?
Yes. Our primary clinic is in Pimple Saudagar, with a second clinic in Baner, and we regularly treat patients from across Pune and the wider Pimpri-Chinchwad (PCMC) area.
