Centres of care
Six areas of focused orthopaedic practice
Each area combines consultation, imaging and rehabilitation under one roof, so diagnosis and treatment don't get split across three different buildings.
Trauma & fracture care
Assessment, reduction, immobilisation and follow-up for broken bones, with X-ray available at the clinic rather than referred elsewhere.
- Casting & splinting
- Fracture follow-up imaging
- Post-injury mobility programme
Spine clinic
For back and neck pain that has stopped responding to rest — including disc problems, sciatica and the postural pain that comes with desk work.
- Disc prolapse & sciatica
- Cervical spondylosis
- Posture assessment clinic
Sports medicine
Injury management for athletes and weekend players, aimed at returning to the same level of activity rather than simply removing the pain.
- ACL & meniscus injuries
- Ankle sprains, tendinitis
- Return-to-play conditioning
Regenerative therapy
Injection-based options for joints that are painful but not yet ready for replacement, discussed alongside the alternatives rather than instead of them.
- PRP therapy
- Stem cell therapy
- Image-guided joint injections
Physiotherapy & rehab
Supervised rehabilitation running six days a week at both clinics, including the longer evening slots that make treatment possible after work.
- Post-operative rehabilitation
- Exercise therapy
- Footwear & insole modification

What to expect
Your visit, from booking to recovery
Orthopaedic care is a sequence, not a single appointment. Here is how a typical case moves through the clinic.
Book
Reserve a slot online, by phone or on WhatsApp. Pick the clinic that suits your timing.
Consult
A clinical examination with Dr. Sripal, and a discussion of when the pain started and what makes it worse.
Investigate
X-ray and bone density testing on site, so imaging happens the same visit wherever possible.
Treat
Medication, injection, bracing or surgery — with the reasoning and alternatives explained first.
Rehabilitate
Supervised physiotherapy and exercise therapy until you are back to normal activity.
Conditions we treat

Elbow
- Tennis elbow
- Golfer’s elbow
- Bursitis
- Elbow fracture
Wrist & hand
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- de Quervain’s tenosynovitis
- Trigger finger
- Wrist fracture
- Ganglion cyst
Spine & back
- Low back pain
- Disc prolapse & sciatica
- Cervical spondylosis
- Spinal stenosis
- Postural pain
Hip & pelvis
- Hip osteoarthritis
- Avascular necrosis
- Hip fracture
- Labral tear
- Trochanteric bursitis
Knee
- Knee osteoarthritis
- ACL tear
- Meniscus tear
- Patellofemoral pain
- Ligament sprain
Ankle & foot
- Ankle sprain
- Achilles tendinitis
- Plantar fasciitis

This list is for orientation only. It is not a diagnosis — several of these conditions present identically until they are examined and imaged.

Common questions
Before you visit
If your question isn't here, call the clinic or send a WhatsApp message — someone will answer during consulting hours.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Walk-ins are seen, but consulting hours are limited at both clinics and
waiting can be long. Booking a slot means you are seen at a predictable time.
Is the X-ray done at the clinic?
Yes. X-ray is available on site, so in most cases imaging and the
consultation happen in the same visit rather than across two trips.
Which clinic should I choose?
Both are run by the same consultant. Vepery consults late morning to
early evening; Sowcarpet is a night clinic from 7:00 PM. Choose whichever fits your day
— the treatment is identical.
Can physiotherapy be booked without seeing the doctor?
Physiotherapy runs on its own extended hours at both clinics. If you are
continuing a programme already prescribed, book a physiotherapy slot directly. For a new
problem, a consultation first is better — the programme depends on the diagnosis.
Do you treat sports injuries in non-professional athletes?
Yes — most sports injury patients here are recreational players, gym
users and runners. The approach is the same: get back to the activity, not just out of pain.
What are the timings on Sunday?
Both clinics are closed on Sundays and public holidays. For an injury
that cannot wait, go to a hospital emergency department.
Patient feedback
Been treated here?
Reviews from real patients are how other people in Chennai decide where to take a painful knee. If the clinic helped, a few lines on Google go a long way.
Pain that has lasted more than a week
is worth getting looked at.
