165 Kg Patient’s Knee Replacement | Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad

165 Kg Patient’s Knee Replacement | Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad

Mrs. Samia Ahmed is from Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. She is extremely obese and weighs 165 kg. Besides, she had two fractures in her legs near her knee. This made her case very challenging. She and her family knew that Dr. Vikram Shah is the best knee replacement surgeon, so she flew to Ahmedabad.

Her knee replacement surgery was performed on both legs by Dr Vikram Shah and his team at Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad. This surgery was special as she is the heaviest person ever to go under knee replacement. As Mrs. Ahmed and her sons share their experiences, they are full of appreciation for Dr. Vikram Shah and Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad for excellent care and treatment.
