Pratik P. Desai, MD, MS, is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with Orlando Health Jewett Orthopedic Institute. He specializes in hip and knee reconstruction and arthroplasty, and he has a special interest in minimally invasive surgery and robotic surgery of the hip and knee.
Joint Replacement
Patients who suffer from arthritis, severe fractures or failed joint replacement surgery will benefit from the skill and experience of Dr. Desai and his team. He comprehensively evaluates each patient’s condition to determine if total joint replacement of the hip or knee is necessary. If so, a detailed, personalized treatment plan is developed. When possible, Dr. Desai choses a minimally invasive surgical approach because patients typically experience less pain and have a faster recovery.
As appropriate for the patient, Dr. Desai offers anterior hip replacement, a procedure that makes it possible to leave muscles intact. This procedure also often leads to less pain and a faster recovery, so patients can return to their life more quickly.
Reconstructive Surgery
Dr. Desai offers the advanced surgical techniques and technology patients need to achieve the best outcomes, including reconstructive surgery. He and his team of orthopedic surgery specialists are committed to restoring each patient’s health and mobility, so they can return to an active, pain-free lifestyle.
Reconstructive surgery may be an effective treatment for repairing the damaged joint and restoring function for those suffering from severe forms of arthritis, such as osteoarthritis, and experiencing pain, joint deformity and mobility issues.
