Experience: | 10 years |
Education: | Andhra Medical College |
Academic degree: | MS (Master Of Surgrey) |
Area of specialization: | I am trained with fellowship in Joint Replacement, Arthroscopy and Spine, and my practice mostly revolve around patients dealing with joint pain, sports injury or long standing spine problem that disturb daily life. I focus a lot on knee and hip replacement surgeries where precision and post-op care decide the outcome. Arthroscopy interests me because its less invasive and help patients recover quicker, whether its a ligament tear or cartilage repair.
Working in spine care gave me another perspective, since many times back pain is ignored till it becomes chronic. I deal with both surgical and non surgical options, guiding patient on when conservative management works and when surgery is really the only way forward. My role is not just to treat the disease but to explain clearly the choices available, so that patient feel part of the decision not just a subject of it.
I enjoy using my training to integrate advanced ortho techniques with a patient centric approach, making sure treatment plans are practical, safe and effective. For me, every case is different and demand attention to details, whether it is a complex joint replacement, an arthroscopic repair or addressing spinal disorders that limit mobility. |
Achievements: | I am proud to have completed fellowship in Joint Replacement, Arthroscopy and Spine which shaped my whole approach to ortho care. That training let me handle complex knee & hip replacements, sports injury repairs and spine related disorders with more confidence. It wasnt just about surgical skills but also learning when conservative option may work better. This achievement mark a turning point for me as a clinician, adding depth to my practice and helping me guide patients in practical and safe ways. |
I am an orthopedic surgeon with long years of practice moving across different leading hospitals, each place shaping my skill in handling complex bone n joint cases. From 2015 to 2022 I worked at Apollo Clinics Visakhapatnam, where I grew my practice seeing both routine ortho complaints and advanced surgical needs. Later my role as Senior Consultant at Medicover Hospital gave me exposure to multidisciplinary care, working side by side with other specialists which make my approach more rounded. Between 2020 to 2022 I also served as a Joint Replacement Surgeon at KIMS Hospital, focusing deeply on hip and knee replacement procedures. That period taught me not only the technical aspects of prosthetic surgeries but also the patience needed in pre-op and post-op guidance, because outcomes depend so much on counseling and follow-up. I always feel joint replacement is not just about changing the joint, it is about helping patients regain mobility and dignity in their daily lives. My style of practice is simple but consistent: careful diagnosis, evidence based treatment, and clear communication with every patient who sits in front of me. I try to balance surgery with non-surgical options wherever possible, because I know not all patients are ready to go under the knife, and some can do better with rehab, lifestyle changes or medication first. Over the years, working in different hospitals across Visakhapatnam and beyond, I learnt that ortho care is about teamwork, compassion and technical precision all rolled into one. I keep updating my methods as medicine advances, but at the core it is always about patient trust. I feel proud when I see someone walk pain-free again after months of struggle, that is what drive me every day.
