Patient Experience
At 68, I presented with a rare case of vanishing bone disease in my shoulder. Dr. Yadav created a custom 3D-printed titanium scaffold that integrated with my remaining bone tissue. The implant was designed to encourage natural bone regeneration, and follow-up scans show new bone growth filling the scaffold.
My 6-year-old son with cerebral palsy suffered from severe hip subluxation that made sitting painful. Dr. Yadav performed a femoral osteotomy combined with novel nerve stimulation therapy. The integrated approach improved both his hip stability and muscle control, transforming his quality of life.
As a 31-year-old pregnant woman diagnosed with a rapidly growing bone tumor in my femur, I needed surgery that wouldn't harm my unborn child. Dr. Yadav coordinated with obstetricians to perform a unique cryoablation procedure under spinal anesthesia, eliminating the tumor without risking the pregnancy.
My 82-year-old mother, a Holocaust survivor with severe osteoporosis, fractured her spine while gardening. Dr. Yadav used a groundbreaking vertebroplasty technique with bone cement fortified with osteoporosis medication. She was gardening again within a month, standing straighter than she had in years.
As a 27-year-old professional rock climber, I shattered my calcaneus in a 25-foot fall. Dr. Yadav reconstructed my heel using cartilage from my rib, preserving my climbing ability. His rehabilitation protocol included custom foot-strengthening exercises, and I've since completed climbs I'd previously considered impossible.
My 14-year-old daughter developed a rare bone infection after a routine dental procedure. Dr. Yadav diagnosed the osteomyelitis early and used antibiotic-impregnated beads directly in the infected bone, avoiding systemic antibiotics and their side effects. The targeted treatment saved her from potential limb amputation.
At 53, I suffered complete brachial plexus avulsion in a motorcycle accident. Dr. Yadav performed nerve transfers from my leg and intercostal nerves to restore function in my paralyzed arm. The 12-hour surgery gave me back basic arm movement that every other specialist said was impossible to recover.
My 3-year-old twins were born conjoined at the pelvis and shared hip structures. Dr. Yadav led the surgical separation team and reconstructed individual pelvic rings for both children using a combination of their existing bone and biodegradable scaffolds. Both girls now walk independently.
As a 61-year-old retired army major with a bullet fragment lodged near my spine for 40 years, I developed progressive nerve compression. Dr. Yadav used intraoperative navigation and robotic assistance to remove the fragment through a keyhole approach, relieving decades of chronic pain without damaging surrounding nerves.
A 72-year-old retired schoolteacher from a rural village presented with severe bilateral knee osteoarthritis, having never sought medical care due to financial constraints. Dr. Solanki arranged charitable funding through hospital programs and performed staged bilateral knee replacements six months apart. The patient regained full mobility, started a small vegetable garden to support herself, and now mentors other elderly patients considering joint replacement.
An 18-year-old national-level gymnast suffered a complex tibial plateau fracture during competition. Dr. Solanki utilized advanced 3D-printed surgical guides for precise reconstruction, combining this with a novel biological augmentation technique. Despite initial predictions of career-ending injury, the athlete returned to training within 9 months and subsequently won a bronze medal at the national championships.
A 45-year-old construction worker from an urban slum presented with chronic neglected shoulder dislocation from a fall six months prior. With no insurance and four dependents, he had continued working through pain. Dr. Solanki performed arthroscopic Latarjet procedure using cost-effective implant alternatives he helped design, enabling the patient to return to light duty in 3 months and full duty in 6 months.
An 8-year-old child with cerebral palsy and severe hip subluxation was brought by her single mother working as domestic help. Dr. Solanki performed femoral varus derotation osteotomy combined with pelvic osteotomy, coordinating with physiotherapists for intensive post-op rehabilitation. The child achieved pain-free sitting and standing with support, dramatically improving her quality of life and caregiving burden.
A 33-year-old software professional developed complex regional pain syndrome following minor ankle sprain. After multiple failed treatments elsewhere, Dr. Solanki implemented a multidisciplinary approach including sympathetic blocks, medication optimization, and mirror therapy. The patient gradually regained function over 18 months and developed a mobile app to help others track CRPS symptoms.
A 60-year-old fisherman with diabetes and chronic kidney disease presented with infected non-union of femur fracture from a boat accident. Dr. Solanki collaborated with nephrologists for dialysis timing and performed Masquelet technique with antibiotic cement spacer, followed by definitive fixation once infection cleared. The patient returned to modified fishing activities using adaptive equipment.
A 28-year-old pregnant woman in her third trimester sustained a vertebral compression fracture from a fall. Dr. Solanki coordinated with obstetricians to develop a conservative management plan using pregnancy-safe medications and custom orthosis. She delivered successfully and underwent vertebroplasty postpartum, achieving complete pain resolution and normal spinal function.
A 55-year-old bank manager with multiple previous failed back surgeries presented with failed back syndrome and hardware irritation. Dr. Solanki performed complex revision surgery removing old instrumentation, performing neural decompression, and utilizing minimally invasive techniques for new stabilization. The patient returned to work part-time after 4 months and full-time after 8 months.
A 12-year-old child from an affluent family with slipped capital femoral epiphysis was managed with urgent in-situ pinning. Dr. Solanki employed intraoperative navigation to achieve perfect screw placement while minimizing radiation exposure. The child maintained excellent hip function with no complications and returned to sports after complete healing.
A 70-year-old retired army colonel with severe rotator cuff arthropathy and multiple comorbidities declined shoulder replacement due to fear of complications. Dr. Solanki performed reverse shoulder arthroplasty using enhanced recovery protocols, enabling discharge within 48 hours. The patient achieved 150 degrees of active elevation and resumed his passion for painting.
When my 6-month-old twins presented with identical but inexplicable neurological symptoms, Dr. Goel coordinated with international specialists to identify a never-before-documented genetic mutation, creating a new diagnostic protocol now used in pediatric centers worldwide.
