About the event
Join our free event, open to the public, which will be taking place at The Spitfire Ground, Canterbury. It provides an opportunity to hear leading Consultants discussing the latest technological advances in their field and the benefits they bring to patients.
When: Wednesday 26 March 2025, 6.30pm-8.00pm
Where: The Spitfire Ground, St Lawrence, Old Dover Rd, Canterbury CT1 3NZ
Benenden Hospital’s Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons, Mr Alex Chipperfield and Mr Richard Goddard, will discuss ROSA knee, the hospital’s robotically assisted surgical system for total knee replacement, and the rapidly evolving technology in the field of orthopaedics.
Digital technologies have brought about a revolution in this area of surgery, with the continued expansion of robotics promising improved longer-term results for patients through increased precision and customisation.
A ROSA-supported knee replacement offers several benefits over a standard, non-robotic assisted total knee replacement. This includes:
- Reduced likelihood of injury to the soft tissue surrounding your knee joint during surgery
- Robotic surgery can be associated with reduced pain, so you may not need as much pain medication after your operation
- Potentially a shorter stay in hospital and a quicker recovery, so you can get back to your daily activities
- Better knee function after your surgery
Join us to find out what can do for you at Benenden Hospital, your nearest robotic knee surgery centre for the Canterbury area.
