Srinagar, Sep 8: Fortis Healthcare on Monday launched a monthly Orthopaedics & Sports Injury OPD in Srinagar, bringing specialised musculoskeletal and sports medicine care closer to residents.
The OPD, led by Dr Tapish Shukla, Associate Consultant, Ortho & Sports Injury, Fortis Escorts Amritsar, will operate every fourth Wednesday of the month from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm at Syed Health Zone, Karan Nagar, starting September 8, 2025.
Patients will be able to consult on a range of conditions including sports injuries, joint pain, ACL tears, ligament injuries, meniscus repairs, arthroscopy, and other advanced orthopaedic surgeries.
Dr Shukla said the initiative reflects Fortis’ commitment to bridging healthcare between metro centres of excellence and regions with limited access to specialised care. “Localised access by a leading healthcare chain like Fortis makes a tangible difference by reducing travel, costs, and physical strain, while improving patient outcomes and quality of life,” he added.
