 I was suffering a lot with both my knees, one by one or sometimes both the knees. I could not even walk and I was always limping and tilting and my children used to say, why are you walking like this mom? You used to walk gracefully, what happened to you? But I used to tell them I am feeling so much pain. It got aggravated since last four or five years and actually a point came when we had gone outside. She actually collapsed and we had to kind of lift her up and we had to do something about it. A bit nervous because of her age and those things. After meeting Dr. Hemant Kalyan we were very assured and finalized on a date of the operation. Soon after seeing him, his smiling face and his kind words, I got confidence and I feel very happy about that. My mom was in Manipal Hospital for about ten days. The first day after the operation she didn't feel much of pain possibly because of the medicines and those things. From the next day only the physiotherapy has been started there. Subsequently she started developing some kind of pain and all. Of course she was put on pain killer and all. But the good thing was immediately her exercises started by the physiotherapy department. After the operation I feel so happy, I feel very comfortable now. I am also climbing up and down the stairs. After coming home we had twice a day visit by the physiotherapist. They interact well with the patient and they could monitor our progress. I have taken a very great decision of getting total knee replacement surgery. The kind of dedication they have, the professionalism they have. I think that is one of the big success factor in a quick recovery. I wish to convey my heartfelt thanks and I will be always grateful to Manipal Hospital staff, Dr. Hemant Kalyan and his team.
