A knee-surgery technique developed by local orthopaedic surgeon Professor Ponky Firer that uses a patient’s soft tissues as a blueprint for surgery, is gaining world acclaim and has led to patient satisfaction rates that are higher than global averages while restoring mobility and quality of life for patients. With his understanding of biomechanics and the science of knees informed by a background in engineering, Firer’s technique, first developed 13 years ago, focuses on patient-specific surgical placement methods that complement natural balance.
