Dr Vardi’s Approach
Conservative management is the first option, but surgery may be considered when these treatments fail to achieve the required goals.
Dr Vardi maintains a good relationship with other professionals in the field, working with sports physicians, biokineticists, physiotherapists, chiropractors and podiatrists.

Anatomy of the Knee
The knee is a significant mobile component of the body made up of three bones: the patella (kneecap), the tibia, the shin bone and the femur, also referred to as the thigh bone. Due to the complexity and overuse of the joint, the knee is susceptible to injury or general wear over the years.
Also known as a synovial joint because of the liquid-filled capsule inside the joint, the knee is created to perform the following functions:
- Provide support and stabilise the body when in an upright position
- Absorbs shock
- Enables the twisting motion of the leg
- Assists with walking by propelling the body forward
