3 Best Unicompartmental (Partial) Knee Replacement Clinics in Thailand

kdms Orthopedic Hospital serves as the first JCI-accredited specialized orthopedic facility in Thailand. The surgical team uses a mobile-bearing polyethylene insert designed for durability, lasting up to 50 years with proper care. This minimally invasive technique replaces only the damaged compartment to preserve healthy bone and ligaments. Most patients walk well within 6 weeks and report over 90% pain reduction. Prof. Boonchana Pongcharoen leads the orthopedic team, providing specialized care for patients with localized knee osteoarthritis.

LUX KOR Hospital focuses on joint care with a multidisciplinary team in Bangkok. Dr. Witthawat Mingmongkolchaikul leads the orthopedic department, holding a specialized fellowship in reconstructive hip and knee surgery from Siriraj Hospital. He is board-certified and focuses on preserving healthy tissue using less invasive techniques. The hospital requires a detailed X-ray assessment by an orthopedic specialist to confirm if this single-compartment approach is suitable. The facility combines surgical expertise with a dedicated recovery environment for joint replacement patients.
