Hip Fracture Care in Pune

Hip Fracture Care

Hip fractures are serious injuries, particularly in the elderly population, often resulting from falls or osteoporosis. Immediate and expert medical attention is vital to prevent complications and ensure the best chance of returning to pre-injury mobility. Our specialized hip fracture care program focuses on rapid evaluation, surgical stabilization, and early mobilization to minimize the risks associated with prolonged bed rest.

Dr. Varun Shelke is experienced in managing complex hip fractures, employing advanced fixation techniques such as nailing or plating, as well as hip replacement surgery (hemiarthroplasty or total hip replacement) when necessary. We prioritize minimally invasive approaches to reduce tissue damage and blood loss, facilitating a smoother and faster post-operative recovery for our patients.

Post-surgery, our comprehensive care continues with a dedicated geriatric care protocol (for older patients) and personalized physical therapy. We work collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team to address pain management, prevent secondary fractures, and guide patients through safe rehabilitation exercises. Our goal is to restore confidence and independence, helping patients get back on their feet as quickly and safely as possible.
