Dr. Ameet Pispati

Dr. Ameet Pispati is one of India's most distinguished orthopaedic surgeons, with over 29 years of clinical expertise specializing in joint replacement surgery, arthroscopy, and sports medicine. He serves as Director of Orthopaedics & Joint Replacement at Jaslok Hospital & Research Centre, Mumbai — one of India's most prestigious private hospitals — and also practices at Bhatia Hospital, Mumbai.

Dr. Pispati's academic and training background is exceptionally strong. After completing his MBBS and MS in Orthopaedics in India, he pursued postgraduate studies and surgical fellowships internationally: MCh (Orthopaedics) from the University of Liverpool, UK; FRCS in Trauma & Orthopaedics from the Royal Colleges of Surgeons (UK); and additional fellowships in Germany and the United States, giving him exposure to the most advanced joint replacement and arthroscopic techniques available globally. He has been privileged to treat the Indian, New Zealand, and Australian cricket teams — a testament to the trust that elite sporting professionals place in his expertise. His pioneering work in robotic and computer-navigated joint replacement surgery has advanced the standard of care available to Indian patients. His practice website hipkneesurgery.in provides detailed information on available procedures, patient testimonials, and contact information for appointment requests — making it easy for patients from outside Mumbai, including international visitors and NRIs, to initiate the consultation process remotely before planning their trip to Mumbai.

Dr. Ameet Pispati specializes in the full spectrum of hip and knee surgery, with particular expertise in primary and complex revision arthroplasty. His specialty portfolio includes robotic-assisted total knee replacement (TKR), computer-navigated total hip replacement (THR), minimally invasive joint replacement techniques, unicompartmental (partial) knee replacement, hip resurfacing for younger and active patients, and complex revision arthroplasty for previously failed implants.

Arthroscopic surgery is another major specialty area, covering knee arthroscopy for meniscal tears, cartilage procedures, ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction, PCL reconstruction, posterior capsule procedures, and multi-ligament knee reconstruction. Hip arthroscopy for labral tears and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is also performed. Sports medicine services address athletic and workplace injuries to joints, tendons, and ligaments in patients of all ages. Avascular necrosis of the hip and knee, joint preservation techniques including osteotomy, and orthopaedic trauma management round out Dr. Pispati's clinical practice. His robotic surgery expertise ensures optimal implant alignment, which translates to better functional outcomes and longer implant survival.

Dr. Pispati operates primarily at Jaslok Hospital & Research Centre, 15 Deshmukh Marg, Mumbai-400026 — a 312-bed multi-specialty tertiary care hospital in South Mumbai recognized for its internationally trained consultant base and modern infrastructure. Jaslok is one of Mumbai's most respected private hospitals with a long history of surgical excellence.

The orthopaedic surgical facilities at Jaslok include positive-pressure laminar flow operation theatres equipped for joint replacement procedures, computer-assisted navigation systems, and robotic surgery platforms that enable precise implant positioning during joint replacement. Comprehensive post-operative care, including ICU support where required, physiotherapy and rehabilitation units, and patient monitoring technology, ensures optimal recovery. Dr. Pispati's practice at Bhatia Hospital, Tardeo, Mumbai provides an additional clinical base for outpatient consultations and selective procedures. Both hospitals are equipped with modern diagnostic imaging including digital X-ray, CT scan, and MRI for orthopaedic pre-operative planning. Advanced image-guided pre-surgical planning — using CT scan data for bone morphology assessment and hip offset calculation — ensures that implant size, positioning, and alignment are optimised before the patient enters the operating theatre, contributing to Dr. Pispati's consistent outcomes in joint replacement surgery.

International patients and NRIs seeking joint replacement or sports injury surgery with a globally trained specialist can access Dr. Pispati's practice at Jaslok Hospital and Bhatia Hospital in Mumbai. Joint replacement surgery in India costs 60–80% less than in the United States, United Kingdom, or Australia, with equivalent or better surgical outcomes when performed by specialists of Dr. Pispati's calibre using international-grade implants (DePuy, Stryker, Zimmer Biomet).

Overseas patients typically begin with a remote second opinion — sharing X-rays, MRI scans, and medical history electronically for Dr. Pispati's review. A detailed treatment recommendation and cost estimate is provided before travel. Jaslok Hospital's international patient services team supports medical visa documentation, airport transfers, and accommodation arrangements in South Mumbai. Post-operative physiotherapy programmes are structured to allow patients to return to their home country safely within two to four weeks of surgery, with follow-up via telemedicine. Consultation can be initiated via the website hipkneesurgery.in or through Jaslok Hospital's international services desk at +91-22-66570000.

Dr. Ameet Pispati holds an impressive set of internationally recognised qualifications: MS (Orthopaedics), MCh (Orthopaedics, University of Liverpool, UK), and FRCS in Trauma & Orthopaedics from the Royal Colleges of Surgeons of England, Edinburgh, and Glasgow — among the most prestigious surgical qualifications in the world. Additional fellowship training in Germany and the United States further enriched his expertise in joint replacement and arthroscopy.

Jaslok Hospital & Research Centre, where Dr. Pispati holds his primary appointment, maintains accreditations including NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals) certification, reflecting institutional-level quality standards. Dr. Pispati is registered with the Maharashtra Medical Council and is an active member of the Indian Orthopaedic Association (IOA), the Arthroscopy Association of India, and international orthopaedic societies. His research and publications in joint replacement and arthroscopy have contributed to clinical knowledge in the field. He has been acknowledged as one of India's top orthopaedic surgeons by healthcare rating platforms and patient advocacy groups.
