National Hospital Launches Hip & Knee Center of Excellence – Rapid Recovery Knee Surgery Program

Maintaining healthy joints and bones is essential, as joints play a crucial role in human life and mobility. Nearly all body movements involve bones and joints. Therefore, it is important to maintain joint and bone health in order to carry out daily activities comfortably and smoothly.

However, amid today’s fast-paced lifestyle, joint and bone disorders often occur but are still frequently ignored. One common issue affects the knees. In fact, knee problems can impact the stability of the body’s structure and affect overall movement ability.

Recognizing the importance of knee function, National Hospital has launched the Hip & Knee Center of Excellence. One of its featured services is Rapid Recovery Knee Surgery, a modern knee replacement protocol using the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) approach, which focuses on reducing pain, accelerating recovery, and shortening hospital stays.

“Our goal is to provide a more comfortable knee surgery experience, help patients return to active living more quickly, and deliver modern hip and knee care services in Surabaya. We do not simply replace knee joints — we help patients regain their quality of life,” explained dr. Glen Purnomo, Consultant Orthopaedic Hip and Knee Surgeon.

The launch of this service represents a concrete step by National Hospital in increasing public awareness about the importance of living free from knee pain in order to maintain a more active lifestyle. With the introduction of Rapid Recovery Knee Surgery, it is hoped that the community can find effective solutions for chronic knee pain problems they have experienced.

CEO National Hospital, Ang Hoey Tiong, stated that the National Hospital Hip & Knee Center is a center of excellence dedicated to comprehensive treatment for hip and knee joint conditions, supported by modern technology.

“By combining the latest orthopedic surgical techniques, including minimally invasive procedures, multimodal pain management, ERAS protocols, modern technology, and a patient-centered approach, we provide precise, safe, and effective solutions for every condition,” said Ang Hoey Tiong.

Meanwhile, Alexander Ang, CIO of National Hospital, added that they hope the National Hip & Knee Center can become a major advancement for orthopedic healthcare services in Indonesia, especially in Surabaya and East Java.
