Knee replacement surgery 

We offer knee replacement surgery at The Cheshire and Merseyside NHS Treatment Centre, Runcorn and The Droitwich Spa Hospital, Droitwich, Worcestershire.

Knee replacement surgery is a procedure performed to relieve knee pain. Your consultant will discuss the different types of knee replacement surgery available.

The aims of knee replacement surgery include improving quality of life, restoring function and pain relief.

Knee replacement surgery typically lasts up to 90 minutes. The average length of stay for patients receiving knee replacement surgery is three to five days.

During your consultation your consultant will provide you with a patient information leaflet containing a step-by-step description of your knee replacement surgery.
