Dr. Chough performs total knee replacements using the VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution—one of only seven VELYS units currently available in the Northwest. This precise and highly accurate technology customizes your knee replacement for the best fit. Because your knees are different from everyone else’s, with VELYS, Dr. Chough uses reliably precise technology that allows him to perform a knee replacement with real-time data—information that’s tailored to the anatomy of each individual patient’s knee. It’s so specific, that when compared to traditional knee replacement surgery, it often results in less pain, increased mobility, and aids in a faster return to your daily activities. Experience custom-designed knee replacement that’s precision-crafted to fit your knee, right here at Samaritan.
We also have a state-of-the-art HANA surgical table to position the patient’s body for orthopaedic surgery, such as an anterior hip replacement, which allows the surgeon to replace the hip through a single, short incision without detaching the muscle from the pelvis or femur. Dr. Chough has performed the anterior hip replacement since 2003 and served as a regional live instructor for other surgeons wanting to learn the technique. His expertise and experience in these procedures utilize muscle-sparing surgical techniques—leading to more rapid recoveries for our orthopaedic surgery patients.
