Advanced robotic joint replacement, arthroscopic sports-injury care and ethical, diagnosis-first orthopaedics at NHS Hospital, Jalandhar — trusted by patients across Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir.
Dr. Shubhang Aggarwal introduced robotic knee replacement to North India in 2019 and heads the Department of Orthopaedics at NHS Hospital, Jalandhar — one of the region’s most quality-conscious joint replacement centres, offering comprehensive orthopaedic care under one roof.
His practice is built on a simple principle: a correct diagnosis comes before any operation. Many patients who visit are advised physiotherapy, biologics or cartilage-preserving procedures instead of a replacement — and are told so honestly.
From robotic joint replacement to sports injuries, spine deformity, paediatric orthopaedics and complex trauma reconstruction — every service is delivered with careful planning, surgical precision and a structured recovery programme.

Flagship
Handheld robotic assistance maps your knee in 3D and guides bone preparation to sub-millimetre accuracy — no generic jigs, no guesswork.
Knee
The definitive treatment for advanced arthritis affecting the whole knee, using internationally proven high-flexion implants.
Knee
When only one compartment is worn out, only that compartment is resurfaced — your ligaments and healthy bone stay untouched.
Complex
Corrective surgery for a knee replacement that has loosened, worn out, become infected or was never quite right.
Hip
Total and robotic hip replacement for arthritis, avascular necrosis (AVN) and fractures of the hip in younger and older patients alike.
Upper Limb
Anatomic and reverse shoulder replacement plus elbow arthroplasty for arthritis, cuff-tear damage and complex fractures.
Arthroscopy
Keyhole surgery for the injuries that follow overtraining, poor conditioning or bad technique — with a return-to-sport plan.
Spine
Deformity correction that realigns and fuses curved vertebrae so they heal as a single, solid, balanced column.
Children
A specialist service providing surgical and non-surgical treatment for bone and joint conditions affecting children.
Trauma
A demanding orthopaedic sub-speciality — acetabulum and pelvis fixation, plus reconstruction of neglected and malunited injuries.
Non-Surgical
For early arthritis, the goal is to save your own joint. Advanced imaging first, then the least invasive treatment that will work.

The future in knee replacement is here. At NHS Hospital we have brought internationally acclaimed, cutting-edge robotic technology to orthopaedic and joint replacement surgery — the first such programme in the region.
The robot builds a live 3D model of your joint in theatre — no pre-operative CT scan and no extra radiation.
Alignment and ligament balance are planned to your anatomy, then verified through the full range of movement.
A handheld robotic burr removes only the planned bone, protecting surrounding soft tissue and ligaments.
Most patients stand the same day, climb stairs before discharge and follow a guided rehabilitation programme.
A group of forward-thinking professionals committed to modern, ethical and scientific treatment of arthritis and orthopaedic conditions.
Patients living with knee pain, hip problems and sports injuries — and anyone who wants a clear, unbiased second opinion before agreeing to surgery.
Diagnosis-driven treatment, advanced robotic technology and over two decades of consistent clinical excellence — with nothing recommended that you don’t need.
Comprehensive guidance on joint replacement, realistic recovery timelines and answers to the questions patients actually ask — in English, Hindi and Punjabi.
Robotic arthroplasty since 2019, advanced imaging and modern implants — technology adopted because it improves outcomes, not because it sounds impressive.
Consolidated scheduling for patients travelling from Himachal, Jammu & Kashmir and overseas — reports reviewed before you fly, surgery planned around your stay.
A structured, supervised rehabilitation programme after every procedure — because the operation is only half of a good result.
Awareness videos and real patient experiences from the robotic joint replacement programme at NHS Hospital, Jalandhar.

“I had suffered with both knees for nine years and was terrified of surgery. Dr. Aggarwal explained the robotic procedure in Punjabi until I understood every step. I walked the same evening and was climbing stairs before I left the hospital.”
“Two hospitals told me I needed a full knee replacement at 46. Dr. Aggarwal reviewed my MRI and said I needed an arthroscopy and physiotherapy instead. That honesty saved me a replacement I did not need.”
“I flew in from Canada for my hip replacement. Everything — reports, dates, insurance and physiotherapy — was arranged over WhatsApp before I landed. I was back on a flight home in three weeks, pain free.”

Straight answers about robotic surgery, recovery, cost and whether you need an operation at all.
Often, no. Early and moderate arthritis frequently responds to weight management, structured physiotherapy, injections, biologic treatment or a cartilage-preserving procedure. A replacement is recommended only when the joint surface is genuinely worn out and daily life is affected. That is exactly why a proper diagnosis comes first — and why a second opinion costs you nothing here.
Conventional surgery uses standard jigs and the surgeon’s eye. Robotic surgery builds a 3D map of your knee in theatre, plans alignment and ligament balance specific to your anatomy, and then guides bone preparation to sub-millimetre accuracy. The result is a more precisely balanced knee, less soft-tissue trauma and typically a quicker, more comfortable early recovery.
Most patients stand and take their first supported steps the same day or the next morning, and manage stairs before discharge. Independent walking usually returns within two to three weeks, with normal daily activity by six to eight weeks. Your exact timeline depends on age, muscle condition and how consistently you follow the rehabilitation programme.
Yes, in suitable patients. Bilateral surgery in a single sitting means one anaesthetic, one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period. Whether it is right for you depends on your heart, lung and general fitness assessment, which is done before any decision is made.
High-flexion implants combined with accurate robotic alignment allow most patients to sit cross-legged and kneel for prayer comfortably. This is discussed openly before surgery so your expectations match what your particular knee and implant can deliver.
Cost depends on the implant chosen, whether one or both joints are treated, and your room category. Cashless treatment is available with most major insurers and TPAs, and our team helps with pre-authorisation paperwork. You are given a written estimate before admission — no surprises afterwards.
Send your X-rays and MRI on WhatsApp and you will receive an opinion before you travel. Surgery, hospital stay and physiotherapy are then scheduled around your visit, and follow-up continues on video call after you return home. Patients regularly travel from Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Canada, the UK and Australia.
Consultations are available in English, Hindi and Punjabi, and patient education material is provided in all three so your family can understand the plan too.
