Orthopaedic & Joint Care

Orthopaedic OPD & Bone Specialist in Kolhapur

Led by Dr. Rajendra Abhyankar (39+ years) and Dr. Rushikesh Abhyankar — expert bone and joint consultations with same-day X-ray and diagnosis, for every age group.

Back pain, a stiff knee, a painful shoulder, a child who fell and will not use an arm — most bone and joint problems start with one visit to the orthopaedic clinic. Our outpatient department (OPD) is where we examine you, get the X-ray done on the spot and give you a clear explanation of what is wrong and what to do about it. Many problems are managed without surgery.

What We See in the OPD

  • Bone and Joint Pain — neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and heel pain, and arthritis of all kinds.
  • Osteoporosis Management — assessing bone strength and guiding treatment, nutrition and fall prevention.
  • Post-Surgery Follow-up — checking your recovery, X-rays and rehabilitation after an operation.
  • Second Opinions — an independent review if you have been advised surgery or want to be sure of your options.

When Should You Book a Visit?

Reading about your symptoms first can help — see our articles on frozen shoulder, knee osteoarthritis and plantar fasciitis.

  • Pain that has lasted more than a week or keeps coming back
  • Morning stiffness, swelling or a joint that is hard to move
  • Difficulty walking, climbing stairs or getting up from a chair
  • A fall or injury, even if you are not sure the bone is broken

Our Approach at Purva Hospital

Your visit starts with listening to your story and a careful examination. If an X-ray is needed, it is done in our in-house digital X-ray unit the same day, so you leave with a diagnosis and a plan rather than a list of tests to do elsewhere. We prefer the simplest effective treatment first — medicines, exercises or physiotherapy — and recommend surgery only when it is truly the better option. If you need an operation, it can be done in our own operation theatre, and our billing team assists insured patients with cashless claims.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

Walk-ins are welcome. To avoid waiting, you can call or message us on WhatsApp to confirm a time. Our OPD timings are Monday to Saturday 9:30 AM to 8 PM and Sunday 10 AM to 12 PM.

Will I get an X-ray on the same day?

Yes. We have an in-house digital X-ray unit, so if your doctor advises an X-ray it is usually done during the same visit and reviewed with you straight away.

Can I get a second opinion on a surgery I have been advised?

Yes. Bring your earlier reports, X-rays and MRI. We will review them, examine you and give you an honest opinion about whether surgery is needed and what the alternatives are.

Is orthopaedic treatment covered by insurance?

Cover depends on your policy, but Purva Hospital offers hassle-free cashless claims with providers including New India Assurance, National Insurance Company, Oriental Insurance, United Insurance and Aditya Birla — our billing team assists throughout.
