About the doctor
Joint replacement through a small incision, and a swift return to movement
The size of the incision shapes the length of recovery. PD Dr. Fabian von Knoch specialises in minimally invasive joint replacement: partial and total knee and hip prostheses, including cruciate-retaining techniques. He completed a joint surgery fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard University, and practises at Gelenkzentrum Zürich, based at Privatklinik Bethanien.
Why patients choose Dr. von Knoch
- Gentle joint replacement. Partial and total knee and hip prostheses through small incisions, with less soft-tissue trauma and a noticeably faster rehabilitation.
- Complex and repeat cases. Revision joint replacement, the exchange of a previously implanted prosthesis, is one of the most demanding tasks in orthopaedics.
- Harvard training. A joint surgery fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital and the highest Swiss qualification, FMH, in orthopaedic surgery.
- Academic standing. Author of more than 40 publications in leading scientific journals, recipient of the ASG Fellowship and member of the European Knee Society.
