About
Dr. Wil Pretty is a rising leader in orthopaedic surgery, specializing in the optimization of robotic-assisted knee arthroplasty. His research focuses on comparing functional outcomes between unicompartmental (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), particularly when enhanced by modern robotic systems and individualized alignment strategies. In his most cited work, a 2024 case-matched series, Dr. Pretty demonstrates a rigorous comparative analysis of functional outcomes for robotic-assisted UKA versus functionally aligned robotic-assisted TKA. This study, which has already garnered 7 citations, addresses a critical gap in the literature by evaluating these advanced surgical techniques head-to-head, moving beyond traditional comparisons to incorporate the precision of robotics and personalized alignment philosophies. His contributions are helping to refine surgical decision-making, providing evidence on which procedure may yield superior functional recovery for patients with knee osteoarthritis. Dr. Pretty’s work is particularly notable for its focus on patient-specific outcomes, signaling a shift toward more tailored, technology-driven approaches in joint replacement. As his research continues to accumulate citations, he is establishing himself as a key voice in the future of robotic arthroplasty.
