What inspired you to lead advancements in orthopedic surgery, transforming robotic joint replacements and healthcare?
Fuelled by a relentless passion for enhancing orthopedic care and transforming patients’ lives, I’ve dedicated over 25 years to pioneering advancements in robotic joint replacements. Performing over 10,000 successful surgeries has deepened my belief in technology’s power to revolutionize medical outcomes. At Germanten Hospitals, where I serve as Chairman and Managing Director, the fusion of cutting-edge German technology with Indian expertise enables us to deliver world-class healthcare. Committed to research, medical training, and innovation, I continue to redefine joint
replacements, arthroscopic procedures, and trauma care, ensuring exceptional treatment for every patient.
How have your innovations in robotic and AI-assisted techniques transformed orthopedic surgery and patient outcomes?
By integrating state-of-the-art robotic and AI-assisted techniques, I have redefined orthopedic surgery, achieving remarkable improvements in patient outcomes. Precision-driven robotic joint replacements have minimized complications, eased post-operative pain, and accelerated recovery. Landmark procedures like the first Reverse Shoulder Replacement in South India and the first Toe-to-Hand Transfer Surgery in India have restored mobility and enhanced lives. With computer-guided navigation systems ensuring unparalleled surgical accuracy and joint longevity, my arthroscopic and sports medicine expertise has enabled elite athletes to recover from ACL/PCL injuries, meniscal tears, and complex trauma, driving orthopedic advancements across India.
How has your visionary leadership contributed to Germanten Hospitals' transformation into a prestigious, globally recognized multispecialty healthcare institution?
Under my visionary leadership, Germanten Hospitals has grown from a 50-bed orthopedic specialty center into a prestigious 250-bed NABH-accredited multispecialty hospital, recognized as one of India's finest healthcare institutions. Our commitment to excellence in orthopedic treatments, robotic surgery, and infection-free surgical outcomes has driven this transformation. Achieving a zero-infection rate in over 6,000 annual surgeries and maintaining a 100% success rate in joint replacements reflects our dedication to patient safety. Honors like the ‘Best Orthopedic Hospital in South India’ by the Economic Times and ‘Best Emerging Orthopedic Hospital’ by Times Health highlight our leadership in advanced care.
By integrating high-quality German medical technology and AI-powered robotic surgery, we ensure world-class treatment. Additionally, Germanten has become a leading medical tourism hub, attracting international patients from the Middle East, Africa, the USA, and Europe. This growth and global recognition mark Germanten as a pioneer in redefining healthcare.
At Germanten Hospital, we take pride in offering a range of non-invasive and minimally invasive

At Germanten Hospital, we take pride in offering a range of non-invasive and minimally invasive
procedures, particularly in orthopedics and pain management. Our advanced treatments include Radio Frequency Therapy, which provides longterm pain relief by interrupting pain signals from the spine or joints, and Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy, a non-invasive solution for musculoskeletal pain. We also specialize in regenerative treatments like Stem Cell Therapy and joint pain relief through Viscosupplementation. Our patients have seen remarkable improvements with these techniques. I recall Abdul Ali, a 70-year-old osteoarthritis patient, who struggled with knee pain for over a decade. After undergoing knee replacement surgery at Germanten, he experienced significant improvement in mobility and quality of life. Our focus on precision and patient centric care continues to drive us forward, ensuring we deliver the best possible outcomes for every individual who walks through our doors.
