Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital has officially launched the Institute of Advanced Orthopaedics, Spine & Joint Care, positioning it as one of Western India’s most advanced and integrated centres for musculoskeletal health. Backed by a team with over 200 years of combined experience and 40,000+ surgeries, the institute delivers comprehensive care for both adult and paediatric orthopaedic disorders.
Grand Inauguration with Distinguished Guests
The hospital inaugurated the institute in the presence of prominent dignitaries:
- Mr. Paresh Rawal, celebrated actor and former Member of Parliament

Multidisciplinary Team with Quaternary-Level Capabilities
As per the press release, the new institute brings together a diverse team of orthopaedic surgeons, spine specialists, musculoskeletal oncologists, sports medicine experts, physiotherapists, and trauma care professionals. By offering quaternary-level treatment under one roof, the centre ensures holistic and streamlined care across all orthopaedic disciplines.
Integrating Robotics and Minimally Invasive Techniques
Prof. (Dr.) Pradeep B. Bhosale, Senior Director – Robotic Joint Replacement, highlighted the use of robotic surgery, minimally invasive methods, and advanced physiotherapy to help patients recover faster with fewer complications.
“Our goal is to establish a Centre of Excellence for treating all types of musculoskeletal disorders, not just for Indian patients but for international ones as well,” he noted.
First-of-its-Kind In-Hospital 3D Printing Lab in Maharashtra
One of the institute’s most notable innovations is its in-house 3D-printing laboratory, among the first in Maharashtra. This lab enables doctors to convert patient CT scans into lifelike bone models and custom surgical guides. These tools, tailored precisely to each patient, allow for high-precision surgeries—especially in tumour removal and complex bone defect repair.
Robotics-Guided Navigation and Specialised Rehab Facilities
The institute leverages robotics-guided navigation systems to enhance surgical accuracy. Moreover, its dedicated physiotherapy wing includes gait-training labs and personalised rehab protocols to promote faster and more complete recovery. Support from 24×7 imaging, blood bank, and lab services ensures a seamless patient journey from diagnosis to rehabilitation.
Community Engagement and Sports Partnerships
Beyond clinical excellence, the institute actively engages with the community to raise awareness about posture, ergonomics, and sports injury prevention.
Dr. Mihir Bapat, Senior Director – Orthopaedics & Spinal Surgery, said,
“We work closely with renowned sports clubs and teams as official medical partners. Our specialists manage on-field sports injuries and guide athletes through recovery, promoting long-term mobility and quality of life.”
Comprehensive Clinical Offerings Across Subspecialties
The institute offers an extensive range of specialised orthopaedic services, including:
- Adult and paediatric orthopaedics
- Trauma and reconstructive surgeries
- Advanced joint replacements, including robotic-assisted hip, knee, revision, and unicondylar procedures, in a dedicated OT
- Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) and spinal deformity corrections
- Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine for upper limb, shoulder, elbow, hand surgeries
- Orthopaedic oncology, known for limb-salvage and bone-tumour surgeries
Critical Care and Integrated Pain Management
The institute’s dedicated ICU is managed by ATLS- and ACLS-certified critical-care physicians, ensuring round-the-clock expert care. In addition, the hospital provides integrated pain management and rehabilitation programmes, led by senior physiotherapists, to support holistic recovery and long-term well-being.
Redefining Orthopaedic Care in India
With this new institute, Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital sets a new benchmark for advanced orthopaedic, spine, and joint care in India.
