Best Orthopaedics Hospital in Gurugram – Apollo Hospitals, Gurugram

Overview


The Department of Orthopaedics at Apollo Hospitals, Gurugram treats conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and the spine. The work spans joint replacement for arthritis, fracture and trauma care, sports injuries, hand and microsurgery, spine problems, paediatric orthopaedic conditions and bone infections and tumours. Patients range from infants with clubfoot to older adults with fragility fractures.
Consultation, imaging, operating theatres, intensive care and an in-house physiotherapy and rehabilitation service sit within the same hospital, with emergency orthopaedic cover for fractures and injuries. That continuity is what patients look for in a leading orthopaedic hospital in Gurugram, because surgical results in this speciality depend as much on structured rehabilitation afterwards as on the operation itself. [VERIFY 24x7 orthopaedic trauma and theatre cover]
A great deal of orthopaedic care involves no surgery at all. Physiotherapy, activity modification, weight management, bracing and injections resolve many problems, and surgery is recommended when it offers a clear advantage over continuing without it. Patients with diabetes, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis or heart disease are assessed jointly with physicians, endocrinologists and rheumatologists before any procedure. Treatment plans differ from patient to patient and are decided after examination and imaging.

Our Orthopaedic Team

Bone and joint care at Apollo Hospitals, Gurugram is delivered by orthopaedic surgeons with expertise across joint replacement, arthroscopy and sports injuries, spine surgery, trauma, hand and microsurgery, and paediatric orthopaedics, supported by physiotherapists, occupational therapists, anaesthetists and rehabilitation staff. Complex cases and patients with significant medical conditions are planned jointly with physicians and anaesthetists before surgery rather than assessed on the day. Our specialists include:
 

Sub-specialities

Joint Replacement

Replacement of damaged knee, hip and shoulder joints with artificial implants, including partial replacements and revision surgery for implants that have loosened or worn.
 

Hand and Microsurgery

Surgery on the hand, wrist and forearm using microscopic techniques, covering tendon and nerve repair, reattachment of severed fingers, and correction of hand deformities.
 

Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine

Keyhole surgery for ligament, cartilage and tendon injuries of the knee, shoulder, ankle and hip, with structured return-to-sport rehabilitation.
 

Spine Surgery

Treatment of disc prolapse, spinal canal narrowing, instability, deformity and spinal fractures, using open and minimally invasive approaches.

Trauma and Fracture Care

Emergency and planned management of fractures and dislocations, including complex, multiple and previously failed fracture treatments.

 

Paediatric Orthopaedics

Care for bone and joint conditions in children, including clubfoot, hip dysplasia, limb deformity, growth plate injuries and childhood fractures.

Conditions We Treat

    
Knee osteoarthritis

Wearing of the cartilage lining the knee joint, causing pain on walking and climbing stairs, morning stiffness that eases with movement, swelling and reduced bending. It is the most common reason for knee replacement, though most patients are managed for years without surgery through exercise, weight reduction and medication.

Hip osteoarthritis

Pain felt in the groin, thigh or buttock, with difficulty putting on socks, sitting cross-legged or climbing into a vehicle. Hip pain is often mistaken for back pain, and vice versa, so examination matters.

Avascular necrosis of the hip

Loss of blood supply to the head of the thigh bone, causing the bone to collapse over time. It is linked to prolonged steroid use, alcohol, sickle cell disease and injury, and frequently affects younger adults. Early detection allows joint-preserving options that are no longer possible once collapse occurs.

Inflammatory arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis and related conditions causing joint pain, swelling and morning stiffness lasting more than an hour, often affecting several joints symmetrically. These are managed medically by rheumatology, with orthopaedic surgery reserved for joints already damaged.

Gout

Sudden, intensely painful swelling of a joint — classically the base of the big toe — caused by uric acid crystals. Attacks come on over hours, often at night, and are treated differently from other forms of arthritis.

Frequently Asked Questions

 
1 When should knee or hip pain be seen by an orthopaedic specialist?
icon icon
Book an assessment if pain has lasted more than a few weeks, disturbs sleep, limits walking or stairs, comes with swelling or locking, or has followed an injury. Sudden severe pain with inability to bear weight, a deformed joint, or a hot swollen joint with fever needs same-day attention.
2 Do I need surgery for knee arthritis?
icon icon
Not usually, at least not initially. Exercise therapy to strengthen the muscles around the knee, weight reduction where relevant, appropriate footwear, medication and injections control symptoms for years in many patients. Replacement is considered when pain persists despite these measures and is significantly restricting daily life.
3 How long does recovery take after knee replacement?
icon icon
Most patients walk with support within a day of surgery and go home after a few days. Everyday activity improves steadily over several weeks, driving usually resumes at around four to six weeks, and most of the recovery is achieved by about three months, with further gains over the first year. Following the physiotherapy programme is what determines the result.
4 How long does a joint replacement last?
icon icon
Most modern implants last many years. Longevity depends on age at surgery, body weight, activity level, bone quality and implant type, so no specific figure applies to an individual. Younger and more active patients place greater demand on an implant and are more likely to need revision at some point.
5 Can I sit cross-legged or squat after joint replacement?
icon icon
This depends on the joint, the implant and the surgical approach. Many patients regain a good range of movement, but deep squatting and floor sitting are usually discouraged after knee replacement, and specific hip precautions apply in the early weeks. Discuss your particular requirements before surgery, as this matters in Indian households and influences planning.
6 Is joint replacement painful?
icon icon
The operation is performed under spinal or general anaesthesia, so there is no pain during it. Afterwards, pain is managed with a combination of medicines and nerve blocks, which is what allows you to start walking and exercising early. Discomfort during physiotherapy in the first weeks is expected and is part of the recovery rather than a sign of a problem.
7 Does every ACL tear need surgery?
icon icon
No. Reconstruction is generally advised for people returning to sports involving pivoting and cutting, or whose knee gives way in daily life. Those with lower physical demands may do well with rehabilitation alone. Return to competitive sport after reconstruction typically takes around nine to twelve months, and rushing back raises the risk of re-injury.
