The Orthopedic Diagnostic & Treatment Pathway
Initial Evaluation
(Day 1)
Detailed physical examination, medical history review, and on-site digital X-rays to assess bone alignment and joint spacing.
Conservative Care
(Weeks 1-4)
Implementation of non-surgical protocols: custom bracing, anti-inflammatory medications, and guided physiotherapy.
Advanced Intervention
(If needed)
If conservative care fails, advanced imaging (MRI) is ordered to plan for targeted injections or minimally invasive surgery.

F.A.Qs
We treat a wide spectrum of issues including fractures, muscle strains, ligament sprains, osteoporosis, and all types of arthritis.
No, you can book a primary consultation directly with our Lalbaug clinic for any bone, joint, or muscle concerns
Many clean, non-displaced fractures are successfully treated by realigning the bone and immobilizing it with advanced, lightweight fiberglass casts or custom splints.
While completely reversing it is difficult, we can aggressively slow bone loss and rebuild density through specific calcium/Vitamin D protocols, weight-bearing exercises, and advanced medications.
If your joint pain lasts more than two weeks, causes visible swelling, or prevents you from bearing weight, you should seek immediate orthopedic evaluation.
