Serving All of Gujarat

Why Patients From Across Gujarat Choose This Hospital

Fracture & Orthopedic Hospital, located at Mahalaxmi Cross Roads in Paldi, Ahmedabad, is a regular destination for orthopedic patients from Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, Bhavnagar, Gandhinagar, Mehsana and other parts of Gujarat. General orthopedic care is available in most Gujarati cities, but an exclusive shoulder, elbow and hand practice — run by a single fellowship-trained specialist rather than a general orthopaedic team — remains uncommon outside Ahmedabad.

Dr. Parag K. Shah's exclusive shoulder, elbow and hand practice is fellowship trained in the UK and Canada, and treats rotator cuff tears, shoulder instability, shoulder replacement and revision shoulder surgery. Patients from across the state come both for surgery and for an honest second opinion on a shoulder problem already assessed locally.

Vadodara is the closest major city, typically an hour and a half to two hours away by road or rail. Surat, Rajkot and Bhavnagar are usually a few hours further, but remain within a comfortable single-day journey. Reports can be reviewed online before you travel, so your visit to Ahmedabad is planned around a preliminary opinion rather than a first, exploratory consultation.

The Decision

Six Reasons Gujarat Patients Choose This Hospital

The practical factors that come up most often when patients from across Gujarat decide to travel to Ahmedabad for orthopedic or shoulder care.

The Short Version
The nearest genuine shoulder specialist

Scroll through what consistently brings patients from Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot and beyond to this hospital.

A Genuine Shoulder-Only Surgeon

Not a general orthopaedic surgeon fitting shoulders in between knees and hips — an exclusive shoulder, elbow and hand practice.

The Nearest Sub-Specialist Within Gujarat

For most Gujarati cities, Ahmedabad is a far shorter journey than travelling to Mumbai or Delhi for equivalent expertise.

Comprehensive Orthopedic Care

Trauma, fracture and joint replacement care alongside the shoulder unit, so most orthopedic needs are covered under one roof.

Shorter Waiting Times

Consultation and surgical dates are typically scheduled in days, prioritising patients travelling in from outside Ahmedabad.

MRI Review Before You Travel

Send scans and reports for online review first, so your trip to Ahmedabad is planned around a preliminary opinion, not a blind first visit.

Video Follow-Up After You're Home

Routine post-operative reviews are often conducted by video once you're back home — no need to repeat the journey for every check-up.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked by Patients Across Gujarat

Answers to the questions Gujarat patients ask most often before deciding to travel to Ahmedabad for orthopedic or shoulder care.

Vadodara is closest, typically 1.5–2 hours by road or rail. Surat is roughly 3–4 hours by road or train. Rajkot and Bhavnagar are usually 3–4 hours by road, with a short domestic flight also an option from Rajkot. Gandhinagar and Mehsana are within a 30–75 minute drive.
For a dedicated, fellowship-trained shoulder, elbow and hand specialist, Ahmedabad is generally the most direct option within Gujarat, since this level of sub-specialisation is uncommon elsewhere in the state. For general orthopedic problems, most cities have capable local hospitals, but complex or specialist shoulder cases are often referred to Ahmedabad.
Yes. Reports, MRI and X-ray scans can be shared online and will be reviewed by Dr. Shah before you set out. This means your consultation in Ahmedabad is productive from the first meeting, and a preliminary plan can already be discussed in advance.
The hospital provides trauma and fracture care, joint replacement of the hip and knee, spine-related orthopedic treatment, sports injury management and physiotherapy-led rehabilitation, alongside a dedicated shoulder, elbow and hand unit led by Dr. Parag K. Shah.
For a consultation without surgery, many patients complete the visit in a single day, especially those travelling from Vadodara or Gandhinagar. For surgery, most plan a stay of 5–10 days to cover admission, the procedure and initial recovery before it's safe to travel home. Dr. Shah's team will confirm specific guidance based on your treatment plan.
Yes. Once you've passed the initial recovery phase, routine post-operative follow-up can often be carried out by video consultation, so patients from across Gujarat don't need to make the journey again for every routine check-up. Where a hands-on clinical examination is genuinely required, Dr. Shah will advise you accordingly.
