Dr. Somesh Virmani
Experience: 25+ years
Sarvodaya Hospital, Sector 8, Faridabad
Faridabad, India
Introduction
Clubfoot, hips that haven’t developed properly, limb deformities that need fixing before a child’s growth plates close. This is Dr. Somesh Virmani’s world. He’s Associate Director & Head of Paediatric Orthopaedics at Sarvodaya, and kids’ bones just don’t behave like adult bones, which is basically the whole reason this subspecialty exists separately.
About Dr. Somesh Virmani
Dr. Somesh Virmani did his MBBS at Pt. B.D. Sharma PGIMS in Rohtak, followed by DNB and MNAMS in Orthopaedics, and then committed to children’s orthopaedics specifically with a two-year post-doctoral fellowship at Christian Medical College, Vellore. That’s worth pausing on, as the CMC Vellore runs the largest paediatric orthopaedic unit in India, and he trained there under Prof. Vrisha Madhuri, whose name carries real weight in this field. Most general orthopaedic training simply doesn’t expose surgeons to the range of complex cases that the unit sees.
Before Sarvodaya, he was a senior consultant at both Fortis Escorts Heart Institute and Fortis Memorial Research Institute in Gurugram, and taught as Assistant Professor at Meenakshi Medical College in Tamil Nadu for a stretch. Out of his 25-plus years in orthopaedics overall, 13 have been spent exclusively on children, everything from cerebral palsy-related bone and joint issues to genuinely rare congenital limb anomalies.

Patient Experience & Approach
Because kids are still growing, almost every treatment decision here plays out over years, not weeks, and that’s really the lens Dr. Somesh Virmani works through. Parents say he explains a deformity or condition without dumbing it down, but also without pretending it’ll resolve faster than it will. Quite a few families end up in his clinic after being told elsewhere that options were limited, specifically because he’s dealt with rarer congenital conditions that most general paediatric orthopaedists just haven’t encountered as often.
