Dr Chander Shekar

Dr Chander Shekar is an Orthopaedician at Apollo Hospitals, Delhi, with 30+ years of experience. His current Apollo profile lists MBBS and MS qualifications and confirms that he consults in English and Hindi. He provides assessment and treatment across a broad range of orthopaedic conditions, with care planned according to the patient’s diagnosis, imaging findings, functional limitations and previous treatment.

His Apollo profile specifically identifies joint replacement surgery, arthroscopy and fracture fixation among his areas of expertise. These procedures may be considered for selected patients with advanced joint disease, sports or other intra-articular problems, and fractures requiring operative stabilisation. The appropriate approach depends on the affected joint or bone, severity of damage, age, activity level and overall medical condition.

Apollo also lists spinal fusion and bone grafting within his orthopaedic expertise. These are not routine treatments for every musculoskeletal problem and require careful specialist evaluation before surgery is considered. Where non-operative management remains appropriate, treatment planning can include medication, rehabilitation, activity modification or other measures based on the underlying condition.

Dr Chander Shekar currently practices at Apollo Hospitals in Delhi. For international patients, review of recent X-rays, MRI or CT imaging, previous operative records and current symptoms can help determine whether an in-person orthopaedic assessment or surgical opinion is appropriate.
