Non-Robotic Joint Replacement: A Better Choice for Patients & Their Insurance

Non-robotic total joint replacement remains a proven, reliable and affordable surgery. But today, many patients are being pushed toward robotic procedures that add little clinical benefit while massively inflating hospital bills.

Recently, we operated on a 65-year-old lady at the Centre for Trauma and Joint Replacement who came with a robotic-surgery estimate nearly double the actual requirement. Her insurance company refused full coverage because the robotic charges exceeded policy limits. She was stressed, confused, and almost denied surgery—all because of unnecessary add-on costs.
With a non-robotic replacement, she recovered well without draining her insurance.

Robotic surgery may look modern, but its commercial misuse is hurting patients, exhausting insurance coverage, and pushing premiums higher for everyone. Good outcomes don’t always need a robot—just experienced hands and honest care.

In the ever-evolving field of medical sciences, one truth remains constant: learning never truly ends. As we grow older and busier in our daily practice, finding time to upgrade our skills becomes increasingly challenging. Yet, it’s this very commitment to growth that keeps us sharp, relevant, and able to offer the best care to our patients.
Among the many branches of orthopaedic surgery, pelviacetabular surgery is widely regarded as one of the most complex and demanding. Mastery in this field calls for not just technical skill, but also a deep understanding of anatomy, precision in decision-making, and a dedication to ongoing learning.
To further hone my expertise, I recently took a step back from my regular clinical practice and completed a short-term advanced pelviacetabular surgery fellowship under the esteemed Dr. Rahat Jarayabhand at Bhumibol Adulyadej Hospital in Thailand. This opportunity was made possible through the Gaziabad International Travelling Fellowship, and I’m deeply grateful for the experience.
Working closely with Dr. Jarayabhand and his team, I had the chance to refine my surgical techniques, observe cutting-edge approaches, and discuss complex cases in an academic environment that fosters collaboration and curiosity. The experience was both inspiring and humbling — a reminder of how much there always is to learn, no matter how far along we are in our careers.
Stepping out of daily routine to invest in your professional development is never easy — but it’s always worth it. I look forward to applying what I’ve learned to improve patient outcomes and to continue growing, both as a surgeon and a lifelong student of orthopaedics.

The market is seeing a growing trend in robotic joint replacement. Companies are vying to supply robots to hospitals, leading to higher costs for joint replacement surgeries. Is robotic surgery indispensable for all joint replacements? The answer is no. Human expertise, with its exceptional abilities, cannot be replaced by artificial intelligence. Other claims are simply marketing tactics. A 75-year-old patient expressed a preference for a non-robotic joint replacement, citing concerns about it .

Fear is a significant concern for patients undergoing surgery. Overcoming this fear can greatly enhance the overall experience. We present a case of a 61-year-old patient who sustained a fracture 20 years back and developed a gross deformity of the leg. His primary concern was his ability to walk post-surgery. Following counseling and a successful total knee replacement surgery, we corrected his deformity, enabling him to overcome his fear and resume his normal life.
