With joint disorders on the rise across India, CK Birla Hospital in Gurugram has announced a major boost to its robotic orthopaedics programme, reaffirming its commitment to advanced, minimally invasive, and patient-focused orthopaedic care.

The hospital recently hosted a clinical knowledge exchange with renowned Australian orthopaedic surgeon Dr Josh Petterwood, known internationally for his expertise in robotic-assisted hip and knee surgeries.

During his visit, Dr Petterwood participated in case-based discussions and observed live surgeries alongside the hospital’s orthopaedic team, led by Dr Debashish Chanda, Director of Orthopaedics. The exchange focused on refining surgical precision, planning techniques, and post-operative recovery strategies.

“India is seeing a sharp increase in joint-related issues due to ageing, sedentary habits, obesity, poor posture, and sports injuries,” said Dr Chanda. “These factors demand a shift towards technology-led solutions that can improve accuracy, reduce complications, and speed up rehabilitation. At CK Birla Hospital, we offer robotic surgeries for knee, hip, and shoulder replacements, and we are not only embracing new technologies but also helping shape their future through global collaborations.”

The hospital, which boasts one of North India’s most advanced robotic orthopaedic setups, is placing strong emphasis on clinical training, evidence-based care, and international partnerships to further enhance outcomes for patients.

CK Birla Hospital’s expanded programme aims to bridge the gap between innovation and accessibility in orthopaedic care, ensuring that patients benefit from the latest advancements in surgical robotics while receiving personalised, high-quality treatment.
