Livasa Hospital, Amritsar, successfully conducted a press conference at its in-house auditorium to highlight a groundbreaking milestone in orthopedic care — the introduction of AI and VR-assisted knee replacement surgery. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from regional media and key healthcare professionals, underscoring the growing interest in next-generation medical advancements.
Livasa Hospital becomes the first in Punjab to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Reality (VR) into its knee replacement procedures — a move that is set to redefine surgical precision, minimize recovery time, and significantly improve patient outcomes.
Dr. Pawan Kumar, CEO of Livasa Hospitals, shared his vision behind this innovation, “At Livasa, our mission has always been to make advanced healthcare accessible beyond metropolitan cities. With the rollout of AI and VR-enabled surgeries, we are equipping our teams with world-class tools that enhance patient safety, improve surgical accuracy, and lead to faster recovery. This is not just a technological upgrade — it’s a patient-first transformation that brings global standards to Punjab.”Dr. Sukhpal Singh, Consultant Orthopedic and Joint Replacement Surgeon, elaborated on the clinical advantages of this approach:
(SUBHEAD)Traditional knee replacement surgeries, while effective, often come with limitations such as larger incisions, more blood loss, and longer recovery times. With AI and VR technology, we are now able to visualize the joint in a hyper-detailed 3D model before making any incision. This ensures micro-level precision, reduces intraoperative blood loss, and allows for minimally invasive techniques, resulting in quicker rehabilitation and a more comfortable recovery for patients.”
Adding a neurological perspective, Dr. Jagbir Singh, Consultant Neurologist, stated: “One of the most promising aspects of integrating AI into surgical practice is the ability to assess and respond to neurological feedback in real time. This leads to improved intraoperative decision-making and ensures that the patient's overall neurological well-being is preserved throughout the procedure.”
Dr. Amanjot Singh Boparai, Consultant Neurosurgeon, emphasized the collaborative and forward-looking nature of this development: “This is not just an orthopedic achievement; it represents a shift toward multidisciplinary, data-driven surgery. When neurosurgery, orthopedics, and intelligent technologies work together, we raise the bar for what’s possible in modern medicine. Livasa is laying the foundation for the future of surgical care in India.”
The press conference concluded with a Q&A session, during which attending media expressed appreciation for the hospital’s forward-thinking approach and commitment to improving regional healthcare standards. Livasa Hospital continues to lead the way in making cutting-edge healthcare more accessible, reinforcing its mission to deliver innovation with compassion.
