Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the cost of knee replacement surgery in India?

A: Total Knee Replacement in India costs $4,000–$7,000 at JCI-accredited hospitals, compared to $15,000–$20,000 in Kazakhstan private hospitals. Both knees can be replaced simultaneously (bilateral), reducing total recovery time and cost.

Q: How long is the hospital stay for joint replacement?

A: Typically 5–7 days in hospital, followed by 7–10 days of physiotherapy in India before flying home. Most patients are walking without a walker within 3–4 days of surgery.

Q: Which implants are used — are they the same quality as in Europe?

A: Yes. Top Indian hospitals use internationally certified implants from DePuy Synthes (Johnson & Johnson), Zimmer Biomet, and Stryker — the same brands used in Germany and the UK. All implants are FDA and CE certified.

Q: Can elderly patients (over 70) safely undergo joint replacement in India?

A: Yes, provided they have a pre-operative fitness assessment. Indian hospitals routinely perform joint replacements on patients aged 70–85 with excellent outcomes. A pre-travel fitness clearance is arranged before departure.

Q: How do I send my X-rays and MRI for review before coming?

A: WhatsApp or email digital copies of your X-rays, MRI scans, and blood reports to MediKaya Healthcare. A senior orthopaedic consultant will review them and provide a cost estimate and surgery recommendation within 48 hours.
