Knee

Dr. Vikram I. Shah is a world-renowned joint replacement surgeon and visionary healthcare entrepreneur dedicated to providing extraordinary care and treatment that meets international standards. He is the Founder, Chairman & Managing Director of Shalby Hospitals, headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.

 

Having acquired professional qualifications – A O Basic from London (UK), F.A.O.A.A. from Switzerland, and F.A. S. I.F from Germany, this son of the soil returned to his motherland in 1993 relinquishing a brilliant career in the USA. His passion for the profession and the urge to serve the ailing in his home country prompted him to establish a 6-bed hospital in his native town Ahmedabad in 1994.

 

Till the early 90’s Total Knee Replacement (TKR) was one of the most dreaded surgeries, globally, Dr. Vikram Shah is bestowed with the coveted recognition of popularizing TKR through his innovation “ZERO TECHNIQUE” which reduces surgery time from hours to 8-10 minutes with added advantages of minimal blood loss, speedy recovery, and near-to-nil infection rates! Today, Shalby, under Dr. Vikram Shah’s leadership, is credited with over 1,50,000 joint Replacement surgeries, which is a record of sorts, worldwide.
