About Krishna R. Cidambi, MD
I decided to become a joint replacement surgeon to combine my desire of helping and connecting with patients, by restoring function in a dramatic way through surgery, with my interests in engineering and technology. I believe in a patient-centered approach. I am passionate about educating patients and their families so that they understand their hip and knee conditions as well as all treatment options available to them. My goals are to provide patients with high quality, up-to-date surgery in a comforting manner. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing basketball and golf, hiking and travel.

I feel that I could have gone either way with the surgery. I was informed about the dfficulties in recovery and the lengthy process. Dr. Cidambi was my 3rd consult. I would not have elected to undergo this surgery with the previous physicians. Dr. Cidambi impressed my husband and myself because he was frank and honest. We also feel he is extremely talented. Instead of living with painful arthritis I elected to go with the surgery and I am so glad I did.
