Our Speciality Areas Are:

Birth defects which involve the arms and legs (like Club Foot Deformity). A club foot deformity that presents to us within a few weeks of birth takes a mere 5 weeks to correct fully. The small surgery that is done in this condition is scar-less
At birth hip dislocation (Congenital Hip Dislocation, Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip)
We are amongst the best centres in the world for treatment of hip dislocations and dysplasia
We are one of the leading centres for scoliosis and spinal deformity correction. Brace Therapy is given in order to avoid surgery when the deformity of the spine is not severe. This is complemented by special exercise programs. For severe deformities, we offer surgical correction. In small children, the surgery involves placement of growth rods which grow with the child and keep applying correction to the spinal deformity. In adolescents, we offer one stage or 2 stage corrections to balance the spine and correct the deformity. We have fully equipped operating rooms, highly trained anaesthesia teams, neurophysiology monitoring equipment, and ICU care to render these operations safe at our centre
Limb Lengthening and Height gain procedures – Limb Lengthening is carried out routinely in our hospital. We carry out limb lengthening procedures by time honoured methods of external fixator dependent lengthening, or by the latest and painless and completely internal magnetic nail (Precice) technology
Deformity that develops later like knock knees, bow legs, flat foot, are routinely treated at our Centre. A lot of the treatment consists of treatment of underlying medical disorders, bracing, and therapy. Minimally invasive procedures like Physeal Modulation are offered to rapidly correct those deformities that do not spontaneously correct. In addition to surgery, we offer non surgical treatments wherever possible – like orthotics, Physiotherapy, Bracing and exercises
We have a specialty driven program for children with Cerebral Palsy and other neurological conditions. Our Neuro-developmental Therapy and Sensory Intergration Therapy Centre is called the Artemis Special Children’s Centre (ASCC). Here, therapy is offered to children with neurological conditions – most notably Cerebral Palsy and Brachial plexus injury

Injuries like fractures, dislocations, and ligamentous injuries
Infections of bones, joints (Osteomyelitis and Septic Arthritis), and the Spine (Tuberculosis)
