BEFORE YOU DECIDE ON SURGERY
Get A Specialist
Second Opinion
Unsure about going ahead with the surgery that you have been advised?
Get an unbiased second opinion from the specialist who does this everyday.
Serving patients from across North East for 15+ years – Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Tripura.
Why Second Opinion Matters?
Not every knee pain needs Knee Replacement. Not every ACL tear needs ACL surgery. Not every procedure suggested to you may be appropriate for your age, stage of disease and functional level. Getting a second opinion from a fellowship and subspeciality trained Orthopaedic surgeon removes your doubts and helps your confidence in the treatment path to be followed for recovery.
Dr Firoz Ahmed, trained in Knee Replacement, Sports Medicine and Joint Preservation techniques, regularly sees patients who are either over or under-treated and helps them find the right path.
