Sports Injury &
Arthroscopy
Precision keyhole surgery and performance-focused recovery for athletes of all levels.
Get Back to Your Peak Performance
Athletic injuries require more than just healing; they require a return to function that meets the extreme demands of sports. Dr. Gaurav Saini utilizes **Advanced Arthroscopy**—a minimally invasive technique using a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized instruments—to treat joint issues with unparalleled precision.
Our sports medicine department specializes in complex ligament reconstructions and tendon repairs. By minimizing tissue damage during surgery, we reduce post-operative swelling and pain, allowing for a much more aggressive and effective rehabilitation program. Whether it's a field sport, swimming, or professional athletics, we tailor every procedure to the specific mechanics of your sport.

Sports Medicine FAQ
When can I start running after ACL surgery?
Typically, light jogging starts around 12-16 weeks post-surgery, once quadriceps strength is at least 70% of the opposite leg and joint stability is confirmed.
Is arthroscopy better than open surgery?
For most joint conditions, yes. It offers better visualization for the surgeon, smaller scars, less pain, and a much faster overall recovery timeline.
Do I need a brace after meniscus repair?
Usually, a hinged knee brace is required for 4-6 weeks to protect the repair while it heals, limiting certain ranges of motion.
What is the success rate for rotator cuff repair?
Success rates are excellent, with over 90% of patients reporting significant pain relief and improved shoulder function after dedicated rehab.
