JAMMU, Nov 23: Renowned Joint Replacement Surgeon, Dr Ranjit Singh, performed a very challenging knee replacement surgery on a 90-Year-old patient from Jammu, at Fortis Escorts Hospital, Amritsar.
Patient Daya Kaur was suffering from many medical illnesses and at an age of 90, this surgery was extremely difficult but Dr Ranjit Singh with his zero error technique did this surgery for both knees very easily and the patient recovered smoothly and was discharged satisfactorily. Now the patient is able to walk for miles together and she can even climb stairs up and down with ease. This surgery has changed patient’s life dramatically.
Daya Kaur was suffering from knee pain since 10 years. She consulted many doctors in Jammu and Punjab. She was advised knee replacement by many orthopedic surgeons but none could assure her of satisfactory results after surgery. Then she consulted Dr Ranjit Singh at Fortis Escorts Amritsar. After knowing about the advantages of zero error technique, she readily agreed for the surgery and got operated successfully. Now, she is living a normal life like other individuals.
Zerro error technique has revolutionized knee replacement in a big way. The impact is such that patients who were earlier scared of knee replacement because of problems associated with it, are now mentally prepared for the surgery despite their old age and medical problems.
Dr Ranjit Singh, who has received various awards for his pioneering and revolutionary work in the field of joint replacement, also holds the credit of introducing partial knee replacement in the entire region. He has received training from various foreign countries and has done more than 6000 successful joint replacement surgeries.
