About Dr. Muthana Sartawi
Dr Muthana Sartawi is Director of the Rapid Recovery Joint Replacement Centre at King's College Hospital London in Dubai Hills, one of only a few centres in the Gulf region offering same-day discharge after joint replacement surgery. He trained as a fellow in adult joint reconstruction at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, one of the world's leading orthopaedic institutions, and holds medical licenses in four US states plus Canada.
Dr Sartawi is a pioneer of minimally invasive one-day joint replacement surgery. He developed the "Modified Intervastus Approach to the Knee," a technique published in peer-reviewed journals that reduces pain and speeds recovery after knee replacement. He has performed approximately 1,000 knee replacements using this method, achieving a 98% success rate. He also holds patents for innovations in hip replacement component design and surgical technique. His work has been recognised with multiple achievement awards from Kuwait's government and health authorities.
He is a good fit if you want keyhole surgery for joint replacement with the possibility of going home the same day, or if you need a surgeon with expertise in complex cases and a track record of excellent outcomes. His approach emphasises rapid recovery with minimal post-operative discomfort.
Special interests: minimally invasive joint replacement, rapid recovery techniques, same-day surgery protocols.
