"₹7 lakh quote for both knees. Saved every rupee. Walking in Niti Khand park again."
— Pushpa Gupta, 64 · Indirapuram, Ghaziabad
Before Orthosist
"Dono ghutne mein dard tha pichhle 3 saal se. Stairs climb karna mushkil, niche baithna mushkil. Mere bete ne mujhe NH-9 ke do bade hospitals mein dikhaya. Dono ne kaha — both knees replacement, urgent. Total quote: ₹7 lakh."
"Mera beta ek IT company mein manager hai. ₹7 lakh ka loan lena hi tha. Surgery date book ho gayi thi. Phir mere bete ka ek friend ne Facebook pe Orthosist ka ad dikhaya — 'free second opinion'. Bhej de aur dekh."
The Orthosist Council Verdict
Diagnosis: Grade 2 osteoarthritis bilateral knees. Joint space narrowing moderate. Vitamin D very low. BMI elevated.
Surgery required? No — replacement is premature.
Recommended path: 3-month structured care — home physio twice weekly, Ayurveda anti-inflammatory protocol (janu basti × 6 weeks), Vitamin D correction, weight management goal of 5 kg loss in 3 months.
After 4 months
"Pehle 4 hafton mein hi morning stiffness kam hone laga. BAMS doctor ne diet bhi customise ki — meri Punjabi cooking ke saath. By month 2 mein stairs mein dard 70% kam ho gaya."
"Aaj 4 mahine baad, main subah Niti Khand-3 ke park mein 30 minutes ki walk karti hoon. Stick nahi chahiye. Painkillers nahi chahiye. Aur sabse achi baat — ₹7 lakh bach gaya, jo mere bete ke beti ki shaadi ke liye saved hai."
"₹14,999 ne ₹7 lakh bachaaye. Aur mere ghutne abhi bhi mere apne hain — naqli metal ke nahi."
