Mum who is 76 years old , had ROSA robotic left total knee replacement surgery . Dr Teh Hak Lian was the Surgeon and Dr Kumar were the Anaesthetist . Mum was already able to walk 4 and half hours post surgery . Pain was remarkably minimal for such a major surgery . Impeccable professionalism . The best part was the human touch , which was heart melting both from the professional and smiling nurses in lavender ward and the attendants. Thank you team Arthroplasty KPJ specialist Penang. You have shown what it takes to make patients quality of health care affordable and effective. Thank you ๐๐๐
