WHAT IS ERAS?

Why Does It Matter for Ludhiana Patients?

ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) is a globally proven, evidence-based clinical pathway that dramatically reduces hospital stay and recovery time.

At NHS Ortho Robotics, every knee and hip replacement follows our aggressive ERAS protocol — combining optimised anaesthesia, minimal blood loss, immediate physiotherapy, and early mobilisation. The results speak for themselves.

Standard Clinical Protocol Advantages

Restores mobility in a fraction of traditional recovery timelines
Minimizes surgical swelling and tissue trauma
Safe discharge to return home to Ludhiana quickly

CONDITIONS TREATED

Knee & Joint Conditions We Treat for Ludhiana Patients

Robotic knee and hip replacement is our flagship — but the journey often starts with a diagnosis. Whether you are in early-stage arthritis or have been suffering for years, we offer the right treatment for every stage.

Knee Osteoarthritis

The most common cause of knee pain in adults over 50. Cartilage wears away, causing bone-on-bone friction, pain, and stiffness. Treated from lifestyle advice through to CORI/Mako robotic total knee replacement depending on severity.

Hip Osteoarthritis

Groin pain, limping, and difficulty with stairs or getting in/out of a car. When conservative treatment fails, robotic hip replacement restores full, pain-free movement with next-day walking.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

An autoimmune condition causing joint inflammation, swelling, and progressive damage. Managed in coordination with rheumatology. When joints are severely damaged, robotic replacement offers lasting relief.

Ligament Injuries (ACL/PCL)

ACL and PCL tears from sports or trauma causing instability, swelling, and inability to bear weight. Surgical and non-surgical options assessed for every patient based on age, activity level, and injury severity.

Partial Knee Replacement

When arthritis affects only one compartment of the knee, a partial replacement preserves healthy bone and delivers faster recovery. Features CORI robotic precision for optimal outcomes.

Revision Joint Replacement

Previous knee or hip replacement that has failed, loosened, or become infected. Dr. Aggarwal's MCh (UK) training and 25,000+ case experience makes him one of Punjab's foremost revision specialists.

Joint Stiffness & Reduced Mobility

Stiffness after sitting, difficulty straightening the knee, or reduced range of motion — often early arthritis indicators. Assessed and treated with physiotherapy, injections, or surgery when appropriate.

Knee Injections & Non-Surgical Care

Steroid, hyaluronic acid (gel), and PRP injections for pain relief at appropriate stages of arthritis. Honest advice: injections are a bridge, not a cure. We tell you when surgery will serve you better.

Pre & Post-Surgery Physiotherapy

ERAS protocol includes structured pre-operative optimisation and aggressive post-operative physiotherapy — the reason our patients walk in 3 hours and go home in 2 days. Physio begins on the day of surgery.

Not Every Knee or Hip Problem Needs Surgery

Dr. Aggarwal will assess your condition honestly and recommend the most appropriate treatment — whether that is physiotherapy, injections, or surgery. Many Ludhiana patients who WhatsApp their X-rays are relieved to hear they don't need an operation yet. Send yours today for a free, pressure-free opinion.

ABOUT LUDHIANA PATIENTS

Ludhiana — Punjab's Largest City, Still Worth the 70-Minute Drive

Ludhiana — Punjab's largest city with a population density of 978 per km², the highest in the state — is a major industrial and commercial hub, home to India's largest hosiery, textile, and bicycle manufacturing industries. Despite having numerous hospitals, Ludhiana lacks the specific combination that NHS Ortho Robotics offers.

Punjab's Industrial Capital - High Orthopaedic Demand

Ludhiana's massive industrial workforce — hosiery, cycle parts, machine tools, auto parts — creates one of Punjab's highest per-capita rates of occupational joint problems. Factory workers standing for long shifts, repetitive motion injuries, and an ageing workforce combine to generate enormous demand for joint replacement. Despite having multiple hospitals, no Ludhiana centre offers MCh (UK) + CORI robotic + ERAS outcomes matching NHS Ortho Robotics in Jalandhar, 65km north.

Research-Oriented Patients Comparing Options

Ludhiana patients are sophisticated healthcare consumers with access to multiple hospitals and the internet to research options. When Ludhiana residents research robotic joint replacement carefully, they find that Dr. Aggarwal's MCh (UK), CORI robotic top-50 global ranking, and documented ERAS outcomes (walk in 3 hours, home in 2 days) represent a genuinely differentiated offer. The 70-minute drive to Jalandhar consistently appears the right decision on clinical grounds.

Ludhiana to Jalandhar — GT Road, 65km, 70 Minutes
From Ludhiana, NHS Ortho Robotics is 65km north-east on the Grand Trunk Road (NH-44) — a 70-minute journey on one of India's most-travelled roads. The route is well-served by road transport. With 2-day discharge, Ludhiana patients are back home within 48 hours. Family members can drop off and pick up the same day as discharge. WhatsApp follow-up means no repeat journeys for routine post-operative reviews.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions from Ludhiana Patients

Is it worth travelling from Ludhiana to Jalandhar for robotic surgery?

Many discerning Ludhiana patients and NRI families say yes. Dr. Aggarwal's credentials (MCh UK, CORI robotic, top-50 global centre) combined with ERAS outcomes (walk in 3 hours, home in 2 days) represent a unique offering not available within Ludhiana. The 70-minute drive is well worth it for long-term joint health.

Is it really true that patients walk within 3 hours of knee replacement?

Yes - this is our routine clinical outcome, not an exception. Our ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) protocol, combined with CORI robotic precision, minimises trauma to surrounding tissue. Physiotherapy begins within hours of surgery. Most knee patients take their first assisted steps within 3 hours of leaving the operating theatre. This is our standard - verified by our patients every day.

How soon can I return to Ludhiana after surgery?

Single knee or hip replacement patients are typically discharged on Day 2. Bilateral (both knees) patients on Day 3. You'll travel home to Ludhiana comfortably by car, walking with confidence and a structured recovery plan. All subsequent follow-ups are managed via WhatsApp - no repeated travel needed.

What is the difference between CORI and Mako robotic systems for hip replacement?

Both are advanced robotic systems offering superior accuracy over traditional surgery. CORI (Smith+Nephew) uses image-free bone mapping - no pre-op CT scan needed. Mako (Stryker) uses a pre-op CT scan for 3D planning and is particularly precise for cup positioning in hip replacement. Dr. Aggarwal uses CORI for most cases and has access to Mako for cases where CT-based planning adds value. He will advise which system is best for your specific anatomy during consultation.

Do I really need surgery, or are there alternatives?

This is the first question Dr. Aggarwal will honestly answer and sometimes the answer is no, not yet. Many patients from Ludhiana who WhatsApp their X-rays are advised on non-surgical management first. Surgery is recommended only when it will genuinely improve your quality of life and non-surgical options have been properly tried. There is absolutely no pressure to proceed.

What is the cost, and are packages available?

We offer transparent, all-inclusive surgery packages with no hidden charges - covering surgery, implant, anaesthesia, hospital stay, and physiotherapy. EMI options are available. The cost is significantly lower than equivalent Delhi or Chandigarh centres for the same or superior quality of robotic surgery.
