A New Knee, A New Life: Rekha’s Journey with CORI Robotic Surgery at Moolchand

Moolchand Robotics:

World-Class Surgeons. Advanced Technology. Compassionate Care. Precision Healing. Painless Recovery.

At 54, Mrs. Rekha Malhotra, a school principal and avid gardener, had given up her favorite pastime. Chronic knee pain from severe osteoarthritis made even walking to the balcony a challenge. After years of physiotherapy and medication, Rekha was told she needed a knee replacement. But the thought of traditional surgery terrified her.

“I worried about the pain, the recovery time, the big scars. I just wanted to feel like myself again—but I didn’t want to go through months of agony to get there.”
That’s when Rekha discovered something revolutionary—robotic knee replacement using the CORI Surgical System at Moolchand Hospital, one of the most respected names in the Delhi hospital list for advanced orthopaedic care, and widely regarded among the best hospitals in India for innovation and patient outcomes.

Why Rekha Chose Moolchand

Moolchand wasn’t just another hospital. With over 60 years of excellence, Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation, and a reputation for adopting cutting-edge medical technologies, it stood out among private hospitals in Delhi.

At the center of this innovation was Dr. Rajeev Sharma, Senior Consultant in Orthopedics and Joint Replacement at Moolchand. Trained at the Mayo Clinic (USA) and the NHS (UK), Dr. Sharma was one of the first surgeons in North India to adopt CORI robotic-assisted surgery.

“Robotic-assisted knee replacement allows me to customize every step of the surgery in real time, based on the patient’s unique bone structure and ligament balance. The result? Higher precision, less pain, and faster recovery,” said Dr. Sharma.

Was walking independently within 48 hours
Returned home in 3 days
And was back in her garden in just 3 weeks

“There was no guesswork. The robot and Dr. Sharma made sure everything was aligned perfectly. I didn’t even need a walking stick after the second week!”
