My mother is from Bangladesh. She underwent both knee replacement's under Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam two and half years ago. She is totally relieved of her pain and is walking normally. She prays that the doctor does more good work.

I am Mrs.LALITHA KARTHIK ,who has underwent total hip replacement in2006 due to AVN(Avascular Necrosis)done by Dr.A.K VENKATACHALAM .Surgery was successfully done and I'm doing well till date. I'm able to do all my routine work without any problem. For the past 3 years I'm walking for 1hr daily to reduce my weight and maintain it.I thank my doctor for painless life.

My wife (72 y) has knee osteoarthritis, mainly in left knee and less in right knee; she has suffered bouts of left knee locking for about 2 years, but she has no pain (luckily). In light of my wife not having pain or other issues, we did not want to go for TKR-type major surgical intervention. Recently we heard about Dr AKV in Chennai and his expertise in PRS-based treatment of knee arthritis. Dr AKV examined my wife and offered biological - (stem) cell - therapy option and explained the details and basis of PRS procedure. As both my wife and I have been scientists, we could understand well and it appealed to us as a simpler, worthwhile treatment option. She underwent the procedure at the end of July (about half a day at CMMH, Mylapore) and after 3 days, we flew back to our Mysore home. She is about to complete the 6-week duration of doctor-suggested restrictions to allow for internal healing. She has not had any problems or discomfort during this period and is ready to get back to her normal routines. Dr AKV is very friendly, gives adequate time to respond to patient's queries and concerns. Overall, it has been a very reassuring process and we are hopeful of good outcome of this treatment. N.
