Orthopaedic specialist in Piplod, Surat — sports injury clinic
Piplod's Gaurav Path Chowk societies come with society tennis courts, badminton halls and swimming pools — the club-sport injury caseload they generate (tennis elbow, shoulder impingement, swimming shoulder) is exactly what Dr. Aman Khanna's ISAKOS-standard sports-medicine fellowship was designed for. The nearest OPD is Prish Hospital, Vesu — practically adjacent to Piplod's southern boundary.
Piplod is anchored by Gaurav Path Chowk, running north from Vesu into one of Surat's longest-established upmarket residential zones. Business and diamond-trade families have lived here for generations, and the lifestyle is one of the most sport-active in Surat — private club memberships, society badminton and tennis courts, and swimming pools in the larger compounds. The injury pattern that flows from this is quite specific: lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is the single most common Piplod presentation, seen in players who hit weekend tennis and badminton well into their 40s and 50s; shoulder impingement from overhead service action and freestyle swimming is a close second; and early knee arthritis in the "return-to-sport after 40" patient who wants preservation rather than replacement. This is a "return-to-sport" caseload in a population that actively resists slowing down.
Piplod borders Vesu directly along Gaurav Path, which means Prish Hospital on VIP Rd, Vesu is practically the nearest specialist OPD — approximately 5 minutes from Gaurav Path Chowk heading south. For the afternoon OPD, Mahavir Health Campus at Athwa Gate is accessible in 15–20 minutes via Gaurav Path northward and City Light Road. Dr. Aman Khanna's sports-medicine fellowship training at Lyon Croix-Rousse University Hospital and his ISAKOS membership keep his arthroscopy and shoulder protocols aligned with international club-sport surgery standards.

Questions from Piplod patients
I have tennis elbow from playing at my society club — do you treat this?
Yes, tennis and golfer's elbow are part of general sports-injury care, usually starting with activity modification, physiotherapy and sometimes injections before considering surgery.
Do you see patients for shoulder pain from swimming or racquet sports?
Yes — shoulder impingement and rotator cuff strain from overhead and racquet sports are a regular part of the practice, in line with the fellowship training in sports medicine.
How far is the clinic from Piplod?
It's a short, direct drive to Mahavir Health Campus, Athwa Gate — generally one of the quicker journeys among nearby localities.
Can early arthritis in an active adult be managed without a full knee replacement?
Often yes, depending on the pattern and severity — joint-preserving osteotomy and non-surgical measures are considered first where the knee and X-rays are suitable.
