Frequently asked questions

Not always — it depends entirely on what's actually going on. Plenty of joint and ligament problems respond well to rehab and conservative treatment. Surgery gets recommended when it's genuinely the better option for your specific case, and that's always explained clearly, not assumed.

It varies a lot by procedure and by person — a fracture and a knee replacement have very different timelines. You'll get a realistic recovery estimate specific to your case during your consultation, not a generic number.

Pain management is part of the plan, not an afterthought — both during and after treatment. If something is likely to be uncomfortable, that's explained upfront so there are no surprises.

This depends on the hospital, since each has its own tie-ups. Send a WhatsApp message with your insurer's name and the hospital you'd prefer, and we'll confirm before you come in.

Message on WhatsApp with the location that suits you, and you'll hear back with the next available slot at that hospital's OPD days.

No referral needed — you can book directly for a consultation at any of the three locations.

Any existing X-rays, MRI scans, or reports related to your problem, plus a list of any medications you're currently on. If you don't have prior imaging, that's fine too — it can be arranged.
