Introduction
Dr. Rajeev Verma is the Chairman and HOD of Manipal Institute of Bone & Joints at Manipal Dwarka. Patients reach him for joints so damaged that walking became torture, old replacements that loosened or got infected, ligament tears from sports or accidents, and smashed bones from road crashes. Handles routine knee replacements to complex revision surgeries and robotic joint procedures.
About Dr. Rajeev Verma
Dr. Rajeev Verma has been fixing bones and joints for twenty-eight years. Over four thousand joint replacements have been done. Spent a big chunk of his career training and working in the UK system and picked up an MSc in Orthopaedics from the University of Central Lancashire and Wrightington Hospitals, which is basically where modern hip replacement was born. Got his MRCS from the Royal College of Surgeons in England on top of that.
Dr. Rajeev does primary knee and hip replacements and takes on complex revision cases where earlier implants failed and the whole joint needs rebuilding around bone loss. Uses AI-driven robotic systems for joint replacements so alignment is perfect, and the new joint lasts longer. Previously, he worked at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram.

Patient Experience & Approach
Patients say Dr. Verma doesn’t push replacement on everyone with an arthritic knee. Checks whether injections or physiotherapy can still buy time, especially for younger patients. People with failed implants from other hospitals appreciate that he took on revision cases. Sports injury patients say arthroscopic ACL reconstruction got them back to activity faster than they expected, with tiny scars they barely notice now.
