About

Dr. Ketan Tamirisa is an emerging voice in orthopedic surgery, whose work bridges the gap between clinical outcomes and patient experience through the innovative use of social media analytics. His primary research focuses on total knee arthroplasty (TKA), with a particular emphasis on comparing robotic-assisted and manual surgical techniques. In his most cited study, "Patient Sentiments of Robotic Versus Manual Total Knee Arthroplasty: National Social Media Analysis From 2011 to 2024," Dr. Tamirisa analyzed over a decade of public discourse to uncover how patients perceive and discuss these two approaches. This work is notable for its novel methodology—leveraging large-scale, real-world data from social media platforms to capture authentic patient voices, a perspective often missing in traditional clinical trials. By mapping sentiment trends from 2011 to 2024, he provides crucial insights into patient priorities, satisfaction, and concerns, offering surgeons and device manufacturers a data-driven lens to improve shared decision-making. Though early in his career, Dr. Tamirisa’s approach signals a shift toward more patient-centered, technology-informed research in orthopedics, with his work already cited for its relevance to both clinical practice and health communication.
