When should I see an orthopaedic doctor?

See one for joint pain that lasts more than a few weeks, swelling or stiffness that limits walking, a joint that gives way, or any injury with severe pain, deformity or inability to bear weight.

Does knee arthritis always need a knee replacement?

No. Many people manage with weight control, physiotherapy, medicines and injections. Replacement is considered when pain limits daily activities and X-rays show advanced joint damage.

Can a fracture be treated at night or on a Sunday?

Yes. The emergency department on OMR is open 24×7 with CT available round the clock. Fractures are assessed and stabilised on arrival, and the orthopaedic team plans any surgery needed.

Why choose a hospital on OMR over a hospital in Adyar?

OMR-based hospitals like Iswarya offer modern infrastructure, larger ICU capacity, dedicated cancer centre, advanced robotic surgery and dedicated transplant ICU — often not available in older Adyar facilities. The 15–22 minute drive is offset by better outcomes for complex cases.

Does Iswarya Hospital have specialists trained at AIIMS / leading institutes who consult Adyar patients?

Yes. Several Iswarya specialists are AIIMS, JIPMER and CMC alumni, and many have prior practice history in central Chennai — making them familiar with Adyar's patient profile.
