Every primary replacement planned in 3D and executed with sub-millimeter precision.
Dr. Debbi uses robotic-arm assistance and computer navigation on every primary hip and knee replacement. These are not add-ons, they are the baseline standard of his practice. Every case is planned in three dimensions before a single incision is made.
As one of the few orthopedic surgeons in the world with a doctorate in biorobotics and biomechanics, Dr. Debbi is uniquely positioned to use these technologies at their full capability, not as a marketing feature, but as a fundamental improvement in precision, alignment, and outcomes.
A low-dose CT scan of your joint is used to build a millimeter-accurate 3D model. Dr. Debbi reviews and refines the plan before you arrive for surgery.
During surgery, the robotic arm provides a physical boundary, the surgical instruments cannot move outside the pre-planned zone. This allows preparation of the bone within a fraction of a millimeter of plan.
Intra-operative sensors continuously measure ligament tension and joint kinematics. The plan is adjusted in real time before any bone is removed.
Implant position, limb alignment, and leg length are confirmed intra-operatively, not at the follow-up X-ray. Adjustments, if needed, are made before closure.
Timelines are typical, individual recovery varies based on age, health status, pre-operative condition, and adherence to physical therapy. Dr. Debbi will give you a personalized recovery plan.
Dr. Debbi showed me the 3D plan before surgery, exact implant size, position, ligament tension. That level of preparation was reassuring. The knee tracks perfectly. Eight weeks out and I'm back at the gym.
My first knee was a traditional replacement and always felt slightly off. The second was robotic-assisted by Dr. Debbi and feels like a completely different knee. The precision is real, not marketing.
