Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions β€” Varanasi Patients

Can I get a second opinion from Dr. Gupta without travelling to Lucknow? β–Ύ
Yes. Dr. Gupta offers a completely free MRI review via WhatsApp. Send your scans and he will personally review them and respond within 24 to 48 hours with a clear, honest clinical opinion in plain language.
Does Dr. Gupta recommend surgery for every case? β–Ύ
No. Dr. Gupta's approach is to exhaust all non-surgical options first β€” including GFC/PRP therapy, stem cell therapy, physiotherapy, and lifestyle changes. Many patients who expected surgery have been treated successfully without an operation.
How far is Varanasi from Apollomedics Lucknow? β–Ύ
Varanasi is approximately 320 km from Lucknow β€” roughly 3.5 to 4 hours by road or train. Many patients travel for the day for a consultation and return the same evening, or plan a short 2-3 day stay for surgery and initial recovery.
What makes Dr. Gupta different from orthopaedic surgeons in Varanasi? β–Ύ
Dr. Gupta holds three international fellowships β€” FIAA from Singapore, MRCS from Edinburgh, and a FIFA Medical Diploma from Barcelona. This combination of qualifications is held by fewer than 1% of orthopaedic surgeons in India. His training and case volume at Apollomedics gives Varanasi patients access to expertise typically reserved for large metro cities.
What is the difference between robotic and conventional knee replacement? β–Ύ
Robotic-assisted knee replacement uses pre-operative CT data and real-time intraoperative feedback to position the implant with sub-millimetre accuracy. This reduces the risk of malalignment and can extend implant lifespan. Dr. Gupta will advise which approach is appropriate for your case based on imaging and clinical assessment.
Is the MRI review really free? β–Ύ
Yes, completely free. No registration, no hidden charges. Send your MRI directly on WhatsApp. Dr. Gupta's team will acknowledge receipt within a few hours and you will receive a personal response from Dr. Gupta within 24 to 48 hours.
