Advanced Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement
Now Available at Surgery Center at Pelham
Surgery Center at Pelham is the first ambulatory surgery center in the world to use Strykerʼs Mako Robotic Power System for total knee replacement, led by Dr. Frank Armocida — the first surgeon in South Carolina to perform the procedure with this technology.
Precision-Guided Technology for Total Knee
Replacement
Strykerʼs Mako Robotic Power System is a handheld robotic technology designed to assist surgeons during total knee replacement procedures. The system helps guide the surgical plan in real time and supports highly precise bone cuts, enhances surgical precision, minimizes tissue disruption, and supports faster recovery times in an outpatient setting, allowing patients to return home the same day.
Led by a Surgeon Who Helped Shape the Technology
Dr. Frank Armocida is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in hip and knee conditions. He was actively involved in the research and design of the Mako Robotic Power System in partnership with Stryker, helping refine the technology before bringing it to patients at Surgery Center at Pelham.
Considering Knee Replacement?
If knee pain, arthritis, or joint damage is affecting your daily life — and conservative treatments like therapy, injections, or medication are no longer providing relief — it may be time to explore your surgical options. A consultation with Dr. Armocida can help determine whether outpatient total knee replacement with Mako RPS technology may be appropriate for you.
