Expert Care for Knee Injuries,
Preservation, & Replacement
The knee is a high-demand joint that’s prone to injury and wear—especially in athletes, active adults, and aging individuals. Dr. Jefferson George, a renowned orthopedic surgeon and sports injury specialist in South India, provides expert knee care ranging from keyhole ligament reconstructions to advanced joint replacement surgeries.
With deep experience in arthroscopic knee procedures, Dr. Jefferson George focuses on preserving joint function whenever possible and restoring movement for patients suffering from pain, instability, or arthritis.
​ACL Reconstruction (Anterior Cruciate Ligament)
The ACL is one of the most commonly injured ligaments in athletes. A torn ACL can cause instability, pain, and loss of knee control. Dr. Jefferson George performs arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using grafts (including hamstring or peroneus longus tendons) to restore stability and allow safe return to sport and activity.
PCL Reconstruction (Posterior Cruciate Ligament)
PCL injuries are less common but equally important, especially in contact sports or accidents. Dr. Jefferson George treats isolated and combined PCL injuries using minimally invasive reconstruction techniques to protect long-term knee health and prevent degeneration.
Meniscus Repair
​Meniscus tears are common in sports injuries and can lead to arthritis if untreated. Dr. Jefferson George specializes in arthroscopic meniscus preservation, repairing the cartilage rather than removing it—especially in young and active patients—to maintain knee cushioning and longevity.
Multi-Ligament Knee Injuries
​High-impact trauma can damage multiple knee ligaments (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL). Dr. Jefferson George provides staged or combined reconstructions to restore full joint stability and function in these complex cases.
Knee Preservation Procedures
For patients showing early signs of wear or joint imbalance, Dr. Jefferson George offers realignment surgeries (osteotomies) to shift load away from damaged areas and slow the progression to arthritis. These procedures are ideal for younger patients with malaligned limbs or cartilage thinning.
PRP Injections & Non-Surgical Therapies
In select cases, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are used as a biological treatment to reduce inflammation and support healing in early arthritis, chronic strains, or cartilage injuries. These are often part of a broader knee preservation strategy.
Partial Knee Replacement
When arthritis is confined to one compartment of the knee, Partial Knee Replacement offers excellent results with a faster recovery and more natural movement. Dr. Jefferson George uses precision implants to resurface only the damaged portion, preserving healthy bone and ligaments.
Total Knee Replacement
For patients with advanced, multi-compartment knee arthritis, Total Knee Replacement is the gold-standard solution. Dr. Jefferson George ensures accurate alignment and long-term durability using modern implants and surgical planning tools for consistent, pain-free outcomes.
