Arthroplasty is the orthopaedic term for the replacement of diseased or damaged joints. The most common procedures are hip replacement and knee replacement. Dr Kieser routinely deploys advanced planning and intra-operative technology with a view to providing benefits for his patients. If you are experiencing  hip pain or knee pain we invite you to contact us to see if an orthopaedic surgeon consultation is appropriate for you at this stage. Joint replacement in Christchurch is a regular part of Dr Kieser's caring practice. He and his staff are able to assist with common patient questions such as the cost of joint replacement and recovery time from joint replacement.
