Mako Robotic Total Knee Replacement
For Tolland patients with mid-to-late-stage knee osteoarthritis, Mako robotic total knee replacement delivers a personalized surgical plan built from a CT scan of your specific anatomy. Dr. Dua uses the Mako robotic arm to precisely position your implant, helping achieve better alignment, less damage to surrounding tissue, and a faster return to daily activity.

Mako Robotic Partial Knee Replacement
When knee arthritis affects only one compartment of the joint, partial knee replacement preserves the healthy portions of the knee while replacing only what's damaged. Mako technology allows Dr. Dua to target the diseased area with precision — typically resulting in a smaller incision, less blood loss, and faster recovery compared to total knee replacement.

Mako Robotic Total Hip Replacement
Tolland patients dealing with hip arthritis, avascular necrosis, or hip dysplasia can benefit from Mako robotic total hip replacement. Dr. Dua plans every hip procedure using a 3D model of your joint before surgery, then uses the Mako robotic arm during the procedure to position the implant with millimeter-level accuracy — helping achieve proper leg length, offset, and long-term joint function.

If you are experiencing hip or knee pain, Dr. Dua will evaluate your imaging, review your symptoms, and discuss all treatment options — from physical therapy and injections to surgical intervention — before making a recommendation. Tolland patients can call to schedule an evaluation at the South Windsor office.
