Finding the right robotic surgeon — FAQs
Who is the best robotic knee replacement surgeon in Ahmedabad?
There is no single 'best' surgeon; the right surgeon for you depends on credentials, experience with the specific robotic platform, hospital infrastructure, and how you feel after consultation. At DHS Multispecialty Hospital, Dr. Hardik Shah (FRCS Germany) and Dr. Swagat Shah (FIAAS UK) lead the robotic knee programme with 2,000+ knee replacement surgeries (robotic and conventional) performed and routine use of the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution. We strongly recommend a face-to-face consultation before choosing.
What qualifications should a robotic surgeon have?
Look for MS Orthopedic or DNB Orthopedic as the base degree, a senior fellowship (such as FRCS Germany, FIAAS UK, MCh, or equivalent international fellowships in arthroplasty / arthroscopy), documented robotic platform training, and a demonstrable case volume. Dr. Hardik Shah holds MBBS, MS Orthopedic and FRCS (Germany); Dr. Swagat Shah holds MS Ortho, DNB Ortho and FIAAS (UK).
Which robotic platform is used by surgeons at DHS Multispecialty Hospital?
DHS uses the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution from Johnson & Johnson DePuy Synthes — an imageless platform paired with the J&J Attune knee implant. It does not require a pre-operative CT scan, which removes one step (and one source of extra radiation) from the patient workflow compared with older CT-based platforms.
Where is the robotic surgery clinic located in Ahmedabad?
DHS Multispecialty Hospital is at 18 Sunrise Park Society, Vastrapur Lake — Drive-In Link Road, Gurukul, Ahmedabad 380052. The hospital is reachable from Vastrapur, Gurukul, Drive-In, Satellite, Bodakdev, Memnagar, Thaltej, Sabarmati and Naranpura within minutes, and from SG Highway with a short drive.
How do I book a consultation with a robotic surgeon at DHS?
You can book online via the appointment page, call +91 9081610444, or visit the reception in Gurukul. Bring previous knee X-rays and MRIs (if any), a list of current medications, and your insurance card. No referral is required.
Do robotic surgeons at DHS also perform conventional (non-robotic) knee replacement?
Yes. Robotic-assisted surgery is not the right answer for every patient — implant choice, alignment, comorbidities, and patient preference all matter. The DHS team performs both robotic and conventional total, partial and revision knee replacements, and will recommend the approach that suits each patient after consultation.
Is robotic knee replacement covered by insurance in India?
Yes. VELYS robotic knee replacement is covered by most Indian health insurance policies and TPAs. DHS Multispecialty Hospital is empaneled with major insurers and offers cashless processing. For a personalised written estimate before admission, call our billing desk at +91 9081021444.
