Dr. Akshat Srivastava

Orthopaedic surgeon focused on joint reconstruction — from robotic-assisted primary replacement to the complex end of the specialty: revisions, deformed and destroyed joints, and pelvi-acetabular trauma.

Philosophy of practice

Three principles run through this practice. First, surgery is the last resort, offered decisively when it is the right one — patients who can be treated without an operation are told so plainly. Second, precision is not optional: the same planning discipline learned in robotic arthroplasty — templating, alignment, balance — is applied to every case. Third, the difficult cases belong somewhere: failed replacements, fused joints, shattered sockets and "untreatable" shoulders deserve a surgeon who takes them on rather than turns them away.
