Penang Adventist Hospital recently completed its first Robotic-Assisted Total Knee Replacement Surgery. The groundbreaking procedure, led by consultant Orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Ho Shu Chien, utilized the advanced ROSA® (Robotic Surgical Assistant) Knee System, marking a milestone for the hospital in delivering cutting-edge healthcare solutions.

These advancements improve recovery times and ensure optimal outcomes tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
