Overview

What Is Arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure where a tiny camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through a small incision. Dr. Sumit uses this technique to both diagnose and treat a wide range of joint conditions — all through keyhole-sized cuts, meaning less pain and faster healing.
