With a focus on personalised care, Dr Khoo supports each patient through their treatment journey, aiming to restore comfort, mobility, and quality of life.
For patients where only the ball of the hip joint is damaged—commonly due to injury rather than arthritis—Dr Khoo may recommend a partial hip replacement. This procedure replaces the femoral head while preserving the healthy socket. It is a smaller operation compared to total hip replacement and may allow for a quicker recovery, depending on individual circumstances.
When both the ball and socket of the hip joint are affected by conditions such as arthritis or severe injury, Dr Khoo performs total hip replacement surgery. Using advanced surgical techniques and tailored prosthetic components, Dr Khoo aims to provide lasting relief from pain and a significant improvement in mobility.
