The OPD services was inaugurated in the presence of Dr Ashish Jain, Director, Orthopaedics & Joint Replacement & Dr Amit Gupta- Principal Consultant, Neurosurgery.
Through this OPD service, we hope to spread awareness about the importance of early detection in orthopaedic diseases, as ortho pains are often neglected by people until it causes distress. We would like to take this opportunity to sensitize society about the increasing orthopaedic problems in India. Today’s generation leads a sedentary lifestyle – long hours are spent sitting in the same position, mostly in a wrong posture, at workplaces. In addition, late-night shifts, smoking, long hours in front of the computer and irregular eating habits are making orthopaedic problems a lifestyle disease. As a result, relatively younger people are developing joint disorders and knee pains and age groups suffering from bone diseases are getting younger. Both men and women lose their bone density by 0.3 to 0.5 percent after the age of 35.” Said Dr. Ashish Jain, Director, Orthopedics & Joint Replacement, Max Hospital, Shalimar Bagh
The main objective of setting up such OPD services in Sonipat is to extend the best services to those who were travelling for consults is not a viable option.

Emphasis was laid on the rising cases of neurological problems among all age groups and timely intervention is the key to treatment.
“Awareness about the symptoms of neurological disorders and the importance of timely intervention should be made more prominent among the masses. We would like to take this opportunity to sensitize the public about the importance of early detection and its role in treatment outcomes. With recent advancements made in the field of neurosurgery, minimally invasive procedures for the treatment of Brain tumors have been emerging as one of the best methods of treatment. Outreaching through the OPD services, the patients and local residents will be highly benefitted.” Said Dr. Amit Gupta- Principal Consultant, Neurosurgery, Max Hospital Shalimar Bagh.
