Robotic Assisted Surgery

Robotic-assisted surgery combines the skill of the surgeon with advanced computer-guided technology. Before surgery, a 3D model of your joint is created, allowing precise planning of implant size, alignment, and positioning. During the operation, the robotic system guides the surgeon’s instruments within millimetre accuracy.

This improved precision can reduce the risk of implant wear, enhance joint function, and support faster recovery. Robotic technology is particularly valuable for hip and knee replacements, giving patients confidence in both the accuracy and the long-term results of their surgery.

Stryker Mako Robot

Mr Dobson is a Mako certified surgeon and performs hip and knee replacements using the Stryker Mako robotic system. This is one of the most advanced surgical robots available, used worldwide for joint replacement.

The Mako system allows Mr Dobson to:

• Create a personalised surgical plan based on a CT scan of your joint.
• Adjust that plan in real time during surgery, if needed.
• Position implants with exceptional accuracy, tailored to your unique anatomy.
