Flagship specialtyRobotic joint replacement
Robotic-assisted surgery brings computer-guided precision to hip and knee replacement. Dr. Srivastava trained and practised in robotic arthroplasty as a Consultant at Shalby Hospital, Mohali — one of India's highest-volume joint replacement centres.
What robotic assistance actually does
In robotic-assisted replacement, a computer builds a three-dimensional plan of your joint and the robotic arm helps the surgeon execute bone cuts and implant positioning to that plan, within fractions of a millimetre. The surgeon remains in full control throughout — the robot does not operate on its own.
Why alignment precision matters
The longevity of a hip or knee implant depends heavily on how accurately it is aligned to your limb's mechanical axis. Precise positioning is associated with more natural-feeling joints, balanced soft tissues and reduced wear on the implant over time.
Experience at Shalby Hospital, Mohali
Dr. Srivastava served as Consultant in Robotic Joint Replacement at Shalby Hospital, Mohali, performing robotic-assisted hip and knee replacements in a dedicated high-volume arthroplasty unit. The same planning discipline — templating, alignment measurement and soft-tissue balancing — is applied to every joint replacement he performs, robotic or conventional.
Is robotic joint replacement safer than conventional surgery?
Robotic assistance improves the precision of implant positioning. Overall safety depends on many factors — patient health, surgical team and rehabilitation. Which approach suits you is a clinical decision made after examining you and your X-rays.
Does the robot perform the surgery?
No. The surgeon performs the operation; the robotic system provides real-time guidance and constrains cuts to the pre-operative plan.
Is recovery faster after robotic replacement?
Many patients experience less soft-tissue trauma and smoother early recovery, though individual recovery varies with age, fitness and rehabilitation.
