About Dr. Shreedhar Archik

Dr. Shreedhar Archik is a Senior Consultant in Orthopedic and Joint Replacement Surgery at Gleneagles Hospital, Mumbai, with over 37 years of distinguished clinical experience. He holds qualifications including MBBS, MS in Orthopaedics, D. Ortho, DNB, and an M.Sc. from Oxford University—the latter awarded for his pioneering research in limb lengthening. His academic credentials are complemented by his role as a DNB teacher for the past 21 years, contributing to the next generation of orthopedic surgeons.

Dr. Archik's clinical expertise spans the full spectrum of orthopedic reconstruction, with particular strength in knee replacement surgery, revision procedures, partial knee replacements, and complex fracture management. He has specialized training in computer-assisted joint replacement from Hamburg, Germany, and brings an evidence-based, technically advanced approach to joint preservation surgeries, osteotomies around the knee, and limb lengthening procedures. His career has been marked by consistent recognition across prestigious institutions: he trained at the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre and University of Oxford as a Limb Reconstruction Fellow, and received three consecutive Postgraduate Merit Scholarships from the University of Bombay (1987–1989). He has also served at leading institutions including Lilavati Hospital and Hinduja Healthcare in Mumbai.

International patients from the Gulf region, Africa, and South Asia seek Dr. Archik's care for complex orthopedic problems, particularly revision procedures and limb reconstruction. His fluency in English and Hindi, combined with his global training background, ensures that patients from diverse backgrounds receive personalized, culturally sensitive care. He has built a practice that attracts patients who value both technical expertise and compassionate patient management.

Gleneagles Hospital, where Dr. Archik practices, is a JCI-accredited, multi-specialty center in central Mumbai equipped with state-of-the-art orthopedic operating theaters, modern imaging facilities, and dedicated rehabilitation services. The hospital's international patient desk, multilingual staff, and proven track record with medical-tourism patients make it an ideal destination for complex joint and trauma surgery. Patients benefit from seamless coordination between consultation, surgery, and post-operative care within a world-standard facility.

Dr. Archik's commitment to orthopedic care extends beyond clinical practice. He co-founded NAVAM, a community trust dedicated to providing financial aid and free surgical care to underprivileged patients requiring joint replacement surgery—reflecting his philosophy that expertise should serve all segments of society.
