Modern knee replacement

Knee Replacement close to Bethesda

When knee arthritis becomes bone-on-bone, knee replacement can restore smooth, reliable movement and relieve pain that no longer responds to medication, injections, or therapy. Dr. Harb performs total and partial (unicompartmental) knee replacement using detailed preoperative computer templating and intraoperative navigation for precise, individualized alignment.

A soft-tissue–respecting technique, modern implant designs, and multimodal pain control support early walking and a smoother return to daily life — with same-day discharge available for many patients.
