Healthpoint provides specialised diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of knee conditions, from sports injuries and ligament or meniscus tears to cartilage damage, osteoarthritis and chronic knee pain. Our orthopedic specialists in Abu Dhabi care for patients of different ages and activity levels, including professional and recreational athletes and people experiencing knee pain or reduced mobility in everyday life.
Our approach combines specialist orthopedic care, advanced surgical techniques, robotic-assisted surgery and rehabilitation, with treatment tailored to each patient’s condition, lifestyle and goals.
Knee problems can develop following an injury, through repetitive activity or as a result of age-related changes within the joint. Our knee specialists assess and treat conditions including:
Following an assessment, your orthopedic specialist will recommend an individual treatment plan. Depending on your condition, treatment may include physiotherapy and rehabilitation, other non-surgical treatments or surgery.
Healthpoint offers a comprehensive range of knee procedures, including minimally invasive surgery, ligament and meniscus surgery, and conventional and robotic-assisted knee replacement.
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a small camera and specialised instruments to examine and treat certain problems inside the knee joint. It may be used to manage conditions affecting the meniscus, cartilage and other structures within the knee.
Depending on the type and location of a meniscus tear, surgery may involve repairing the damaged meniscus or removing only the damaged or unstable portion through a partial meniscectomy.
Where appropriate, our surgeons aim to preserve as much healthy meniscal tissue as possible.
ACL reconstruction may be recommended for patients with significant anterior cruciate ligament injuries who experience knee instability or want to return to sports and activities involving running, pivoting or rapid changes in direction.
For patients with advanced osteoarthritis or significant knee joint damage, partial or total knee replacement may be considered when non-surgical treatments no longer provide adequate relief.
Healthpoint offers both conventional and robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery in Abu Dhabi, with access to two advanced robotic platforms: MAKO SmartRobotics™ and VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution.
MAKO uses CT-based 3D planning to help surgeons create a personalised surgical plan and guide implant positioning during joint replacement. VELYS™ provides the surgeon with real-time data during knee replacement surgery to support accurate implant positioning and joint balancing without requiring a pre-operative CT scan. In both approaches, the orthopedic surgeon remains in control of the procedure while robotic technology supports surgical planning and precision.
Healthpoint is a specialised surgical hospital in Abu Dhabi with established expertise in orthoaedics, sports medicine and advanced joint replacement surgery. Our integrated knee service brings together experienced orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists, physiotherapists and rehabilitation professionals to support patients throughout their treatment and recovery.
Healthpoint is also recognised for its experience in robotic-assisted orthopedic surgery, offering both MAKO SmartRobotics™ and VELYS™ for knee replacement procedures. Healthpoint was among the early adopters of MAKO technology in the UAE and has extensive experience performing robotic-assisted joint replacement procedures.
Patients can access advanced diagnostics, minimally invasive procedures, sports injury treatment, conventional and robotic-assisted knee replacement, and personalised rehabilitation within one hospital.

You should consult a knee specialist if you experience persistent knee pain, swelling, stiffness, instability, locking, difficulty walking, reduced mobility or symptoms that continue despite rest or conservative treatment. Early assessment can often prevent further joint damage and improve treatment outcomes.
Knee pain may result from arthritis, sports injuries, ligament tears, meniscus injuries, cartilage damage, tendon disorders, bursitis, fractures or overuse injuries. A comprehensive assessment is important to determine the underlying cause and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Yes. Many knee conditions can be managed successfully with physiotherapy, rehabilitation, medications, injection therapy, bracing, activity modification and lifestyle changes. Surgery is generally considered only when conservative treatments are no longer effective or when structural damage requires surgical repair.
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure performed through small incisions using a tiny camera and specialised instruments. It is commonly used to diagnose and treat meniscus tears, cartilage injuries, loose bodies and certain ligament conditions while minimising disruption to surrounding tissues.
A partial knee replacement replaces only the damaged compartment of the knee while preserving healthy bone, cartilage and ligaments. A total knee replacement replaces the entire knee joint. Your orthopedic surgeon will recommend the most suitable procedure based on the extent of arthritis and your individual anatomy.
Robotic-assisted knee replacement uses advanced computer-guided technology to assist the surgeon in planning and performing knee replacement surgery with a high degree of precision. The robotic system does not replace the surgeon but provides additional information and guidance to support personalised surgical planning and accurate implant positioning.
Both MAKO SmartRobotics™ and the VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution are advanced robotic platforms that support precision during knee replacement surgery. MAKO uses a pre-operative CT scan to create a personalised three-dimensional surgical plan and provides robotic-arm guidance during surgery. VELYS gathers real-time information during the operation without requiring a pre-operative CT scan, allowing the surgeon to make personalised adjustments based on the patient's anatomy and soft tissue balance. Your surgeon will determine which technology is most appropriate for your individual condition.

Recovery varies from person to person. Most patients begin walking shortly after surgery with the support of physiotherapists. Improvement continues over several months as strength, mobility and confidence return through structured rehabilitation. Your surgeon will provide personalised guidance based on your progress and the type of procedure performed.
Many patients are able to return to physical activity following rehabilitation. The timing depends on the type of surgery performed, your recovery and the demands of your chosen sport. Your orthopedic specialist and physiotherapist will advise when it is safe to resume activity.
Healthpoint combines internationally trained orthopedic surgeons, advanced diagnostic imaging, comprehensive rehabilitation services and leading robotic-assisted technologies to provide personalised knee care. From conservative treatment to complex reconstructive surgery and robotic-assisted joint replacement, patients receive expert multidisciplinary care at every stage of their treatment journey.
