Centre for Knee & Hip Surgery (CKHS), at Baroda is probably the only unit in India, which
addresses the entire range of knee-related problems and offers patients need-based solutions. It has
the complete range of treatment facilities for knee & Hip problems starting from non-operative
solutions to the minimally invasive arthroscopic surgical technique extending upto complex
procedures like knee and hip replacement surgery and Revision knee & hip replacement surgery.
Situated at Race Course Circle, a prime location in Baroda, Centre for Knee & Hip Surgery is easy to
access. The distance of this hospital is about 2.5 kms from railway station, 3 kms from G.S.R.T.C.
bus station and 5 kms from the airport.
This clinic is perhaps the only one of its kind in the entire country to focus just on the knee and
hip joint. The benefits of having such a clinic are plenty. Some of them are :-
- Under a single roof, a comprehensive range of state-of-the-art infrastructure is available for
anything and everything to do with knee and hip related problems. The Centre is able to invest
in the best and the latest possible electronic instrumentation systems for knee & hip surgery
which are available in the world, as it just focuses on these joints . It would otherwise be
very difficult, if not impossible, to keep on pumping money for updating every area of
orthopaedics.
-
The operative environment is not contaminated, as we do not have other multispeciality work. If,
in the same operation theatre area, different body parts are opened, then the air will always be
laden with germs that may cause infection of the knee or hip joint.
-
Infection is the most important cause of compromised result after a successful joint replacement
surgery. Our operation theatre thus scores over other multi speciality hospitals due to above
reasons.
-
At the manpower level, our nursing staff, physiotherapists, and all other concerned people
acquire an extremely high level of competence because of repetitive work of the same nature.
The
Centre for Knee & Hip Surgery has established itself as a prime centre for medical

Newzeland, Panama Canal, Mauritius, Fiji Islands & the Middle East countries. These patients include
