Consultant-Led Care

Your entire journey is overseen by experienced GMC-registered orthopaedic consultants who are recognised leaders within their specialties.

From diagnosis and imaging through to surgery and rehabilitation, every stage of your care is clinically led and focused on delivering exceptional patient outcomes.

Modern Surgical Techniques

Knee replacement surgery has evolved significantly in recent years. Medinet consultants utilise modern evidence-based techniques designed to minimise tissue disruption wherever possible while delivering excellent long-term outcomes.

Compared with traditional approaches, these techniques may support:

  • Faster recovery after surgery
  • Reduced post-operative nausea
  • Earlier physiotherapy participation
  • Improved comfort during recovery
  • Earlier discharge home when clinically appropriate

Our enhanced recovery pathways are specifically designed to help patients regain mobility safely and confidently.

Enhanced Recovery Pathways

Many Medinet knee replacement patients benefit from modern anaesthetic techniques, often involving a spinal block combined with light sedation rather than a general anaesthetic.

This approach can support:

  • Faster recovery following surgery
  • Reduced post-operative nausea
  • Earlier physiotherapy participation
  • Improved comfort during recovery
  • Earlier discharge home when clinically appropriate

Our enhanced recovery pathways are specifically designed to help patients regain mobility safely and confidently.

Advanced Implant Technology

Medinet consultants use modern knee replacement implants selected to support durability, stability, and long-term performance.

Your consultant will recommend the most appropriate implant solution based on your anatomy, lifestyle, mobility goals, and clinical requirements.

Supporting Your Recovery Beyond Surgery

Successful recovery extends far beyond the operating theatre.
That is why Medinet provides patients with detailed rehabilitation and recovery support designed to restore confidence and movement safely.

Patients benefit from:

  • Structured mobility guidance
  • Daily exercise and movement plans
  • Walking aids and in-home support equipment
  • Early physiotherapy support
  • Ongoing rehabilitation guidance

Our rehabilitation programmes focus on manageable light exercises that can be incorporated into everyday life, helping patients steadily rebuild strength, flexibility, and mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a knee replacement?

Patients who may benefit from knee replacement surgery often experience persistent knee pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, pain during walking, difficulty sleeping, or discomfort that affects everyday activities. Following rapid access to X-ray or MRI imaging, your consultant will provide a full diagnosis and discuss all available treatment options.

How quickly can I access a knee MRI or X-ray with Medinet?

Medinet provides rapid nationwide access to diagnostic imaging, including knee X-rays and MRI scans. We help patients avoid unnecessary delays and access expert consultant review as quickly as possible.

Do I need a referral to book a consultation?

In many cases, patients can enquire directly with Medinet to begin their diagnostic or treatment journey. Our experienced team can guide you through the next steps and arrange rapid access to imaging and consultant assessment.

What is knee replacement surgery?

Knee replacement surgery uses modern surgical techniques designed to reduce disruption to muscles and surrounding tissue compared with traditional approaches.

Benefits can include:

  • Smaller incisions
  • Reduced post-operative pain
  • Faster recovery
  • Earlier mobilisation
  • Shorter hospital stays
  • Earlier return to normal activities

Your consultant will discuss the approach most appropriate for you.

How long does a knee replacement last?

A knee replacement typically lasts 15 to 20 years, with about 80% to 90% of implants still working well after 20 years. Many artificial joints can last even longer, but normal daily wear can cause the metal and plastic parts to wear out over time.

Will I need a general anaesthetic for knee replacement surgery?

Most Medinet knee replacement patients undergo surgery using a spinal block combined with sedation rather than a general anaesthetic. This modern approach is widely recognised for supporting enhanced recovery and may help patients experience:

  •  Faster recovery after surgery
  • Less nausea and grogginess
  • Earlier physiotherapy
  • Improved early pain control

Your anaesthetist will discuss the safest and most appropriate option for you.

How long will I stay in hospital after knee replacement surgery?

The majority of Medinet patients are discharged the morning following surgery, with many patients returning home safely on the same day depending on their recovery and clinical suitability. Our enhanced recovery pathway is designed to support early mobilisation and accelerated rehabilitation.

How long does recovery from knee replacement surgery take?

Every patient recovers differently; however many patients notice significant improvement in mobility and comfort within the first few weeks following surgery.

Patients are encouraged to begin movement and physiotherapy shortly after surgery as part of their recovery pathway. Most patients steadily return to normal daily activities over the following weeks and months.

What support will I receive after surgery?

Medinet provides comprehensive rehabilitation support following knee replacement surgery, including:

  • Walking aids
  • Home support equipment
  • Physiotherapy guidance
  • Structured mobility exercises
  • Daily movement plans
  • Follow-up care

Our recovery pathways are designed to help patients rebuild confidence, strength, and mobility safely.

How much does private knee replacement surgery cost?

Private knee replacement surgery with Medinet starts from £12,500.

Our pricing is transparent and designed to avoid hidden extras. Your package includes consultant-led care, hospital fees, anaesthetist fees, physiotherapy support, and follow-up care.

Are Medinet orthopaedic consultants GMC registered?

Yes. All Medinet orthopaedic consultants are GMC registered specialists and highly experienced within their respective fields. Patients benefit from consultant-led care throughout every stage of their journey.
