Dr. Suraj Prakash

Dr Suraj Prakash is an Orthopaedics & Joint Replacement specialist at SAMA Hospital, New Delhi, with 26 years of experience. He completed MBBS at Maulana Azad Medical College in 1990, MS in Orthopaedics at Safdarjung Hospital in 1995 and M.Ch in Orthopaedics at the University of Dundee, Scotland, in 2001.

His clinical practice focuses on knee and hip replacement, arthroscopy and sports medicine. His own orthopaedic practice describes total and partial knee replacement, total and partial hip replacement, shoulder replacement and arthroscopic surgery among the principal procedures offered for degenerative joint disease and selected injuries.

After postgraduate training, Dr Prakash worked as a senior resident at Dr RML Hospital and Safdarjung Hospital. In 1999 he undertook fellowship training in arthroscopy and sports medicine at Singapore General Hospital, gaining focused experience in surgical management of ligament, cartilage and other sports-related joint problems.

His work combines joint reconstruction with minimally invasive assessment and treatment of knee, hip and shoulder conditions. Procedure selection depends on the diagnosis, imaging, severity of joint damage, functional limitation, previous conservative treatment and the patient's overall health rather than on symptoms alone.

For international patients considering orthopaedic treatment, useful records include recent X-rays, MRI or CT scans, previous operative reports and details of physiotherapy, injections or medication already tried. India Medical Help can assist with submitting available records and coordinating an enquiry with SAMA Hospital; the treating orthopaedic team determines diagnosis, surgical suitability and the final treatment plan.
