ABOUT DR. D. S. BHAMARE
Dr. D. S. Bhamare is a highly experienced Orthopaedic Surgeon and Sports Medicine Specialist with over 25 years of expertise in Orthopaedics, Arthroscopy, and Sports Medicine, specialising in the diagnosis, treatment, and advanced reconstruction of sports injuries, joint disorders, ligament injuries, and soft tissue conditions involving the shoulder, elbow, knee, ankle, and hip.
As the Head of Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine, Dr. Bhamare brings extensive expertise in arthroscopic (keyhole) surgery, sports injury management, soft tissue reconstruction, deformity correction, and shoulder and elbow joint replacement procedures.
With advanced training in Sports Science from the United Kingdom, he combines international sports medicine principles with evidence-based orthopaedic care to help athletes, active individuals, and patients suffering from joint injuries return safely to movement, work, and sports activities.
His practice focuses on minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures, ligament and tendon repair, complex joint reconstruction, shoulder and elbow replacement surgery, and comprehensive sports injury rehabilitation.
Dr. Bhamare’s philosophy is centred around precision diagnosis, joint preservation whenever possible, early recovery, and restoring functional performance through advanced orthopaedic care.
PROFESSIONAL APPROACH
“The goal of sports medicine and arthroscopy is not just healing an injury — it is restoring strength, stability, confidence, and performance. Every treatment plan should focus on long-term function and safe return to activity.”
Dr. Bhamare follows a comprehensive and performance-focused approach to orthopaedic care, with emphasis on:
- Accurate diagnosis and injury assessment
- Advanced arthroscopic (minimally invasive) surgery
- Sports-specific injury management
- Soft tissue preservation and reconstruction
- Joint preservation whenever possible
- Functional rehabilitation and movement restoration
- Return-to-sport and performance optimisation
- Long-term mobility and joint health
ARTHROSCOPY SPECIALITY
Arthroscopy forms the cornerstone of Dr. Bhamare’s clinical expertise. Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses a small camera and specialised instruments to diagnose and treat joint conditions through tiny incisions.
He performs arthroscopy of the shoulder, knee, ankle, and hip, helping patients recover faster with reduced pain, minimal scarring, and shorter recovery periods compared to traditional open surgery.
His arthroscopic expertise includes treatment of:
- Ligament injuries
- Tendon tears
- Joint instability
- Sports injuries
- Soft tissue damage
- Cartilage disorders
Shoulder and knee reconstruction
