Apollo Clinic, a trusted leader in healthcare, has announced the launch of advanced orthopaedic services in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, providing residents with access to specialized medical care that was previously unavailable locally. This significant development marks a milestone in healthcare for the region, offering islanders the opportunity to receive top-tier treatment without the need to travel to mainland India.

Two years ago, residents of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands faced limited access to critical medical services, often requiring them to seek treatment on the mainland. Today, Apollo Clinic is addressing this gap by offering a comprehensive range of orthopaedic services, ensuring that patients can receive expert care right at their doorstep.

The state-of-the-art orthopaedic department at Apollo Clinic is led by Dr. Hitesh Kumar J., MBBS, MS Orthopedic, who brings extensive experience and specialised training to the clinic. Under his leadership, the department provides a wide array of services, including 24/7 emergency care, fracture management, accident trauma care, and surgeries. The clinic also offers specialised services such as plaster casting, splinting, joint replacement surgery, and pain management, delivering holistic care for bones, joints, and muscles.

Dr. Hitesh Kumar J. is renowned for his expertise, having completed fellowships in arthroplasty from Bengaluru and Pune, and holding a diploma in football medicine from FIFA. His presence at Apollo Clinic ensures that patients in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands receive the highest standard of orthopaedic care.
