Fortis Escorts Amritsar Launches Dedicated Orthopaedics & Sports Injury OPD in Srinagar to Enhance Access to Specialised Care Fortis Healthcare today announced the launch of a monthly Orthopaedics & Sports Injury OPD in Srinagar, marking a significant step in bringing advanced musculoskeletal and sports medicine expertise to the city. The newly launched OPD will allow Srinagar residents to access expert consultations locally, eliminating the need for extensive travel for specialised orthopaedic care to other cities
The OPD led by Dr. Tapish Shukla, Associate Consultant, Ortho & Sports Injury, Fortis Escorts Amritsar will operate every fourth Wednesday of the month, from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm, at Syed Health Zone, Karan Nagar, Srinagar starting 8 September 2025. Through the extension of Fortis' orthopaedic care facilities in the city, patients will be able to consult on a wide range of conditions including sports injuries, joint pain, ACL tears, ligament injuries, meniscus repairs, arthroscopy and other advanced orthopaedic surgeries
Dr. Tapish Shukla, Associate Consultant, Ortho & Sports Injury, Fortis Escorts Amritsar said, "This OPD launch in Srinagar reflects Fortis' commitment to building a stronger healthcare bridge between metro centres of excellence and regions where access to specialised care is limited. In a region where travelling for care con mean significant cast, as well as physical strain, localised access by a leading Healthcare chain like Fortis makes a tangible difference. By combining advanced medical expertise with proximity, we aim to not only treat injuries but also improve both patient health outcomes and the quality of life
