Carol was the first patient to undergo total knee replacement surgery using KIMS Hospital’s state-of-the-art Mako SmartRobotics system. Carol was referred to Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, Mr Chan Jeer, after living with knee pain that became so severe her activity was restricted and walking a long distance was increasingly more painful. Carol shares why she chose The Mako SmartRobotics system for her Knee Replacement Surgery at KIMS Hospital and how she's found the recovery process. Enquiries & appointments
