Why undergo a total knee replacement when only one part of the knee joint is damaged by osteoarthritis? This question is becoming extremely relevant as improvements in artificial joints and surgical techniques make partial knee replacement a better choice for certain patients, helping them recover more quickly and get back to their favorite sports and other activities.

At Plancher Orthopaedics, we believe that treating a patient means listening to their story, not just reading a report. 💙

We are so proud of Apurva Modak’s incredible recovery! After an initial MRI suggested one type of tear, Dr. Plancher’s clinical assessment told a different story. By challenging the initial findings, he identified a bucket handle tear, allowing for a meniscus-preserving repair.

“Today, after 2 months out of surgery, I am back on my feet walking totally normal... Also a huge shoutout to Ivonne for answering all my questions patiently.” — Apurva Modak

Whether it’s a complex diagnosis or navigating recovery, our team is with you every step of the way. 🤝✨
