Dr. Bejjanki Nithin Kumar — Senior Consultant in Hyderabad

Dr. Bejjanki Nithin Kumar is a Senior Consultant at Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad, in Hyderabad, with more than 25 years of experience. His profile records orthopedics together with sports medicine.

The shoulder and the knee dominate his list. He performs shoulder replacement and rotator cuff repair for rotator cuff tear, and treats shoulder instability and frozen shoulder. On the knee he performs total knee replacement, robotic knee replacement, revision knee replacement, ACL reconstruction, PCL reconstruction and meniscus repair. He also performs ankle replacement, bunion surgery for hallux valgus, arthroscopic surgery, tendon repair, fracture fixation and joint injection, and treats osteomyelitis, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow and trigger finger.

His qualifications are entirely postgraduate. He holds the M.Ch in orthopaedics and the MRCS, and was elected FRCS in trauma and orthopaedics by the Royal College of Surgeons. He also holds the DSEM, a Diploma in Sports and Exercise Medicine from the International Olympic Committee, which is the formal basis for the sports medicine specialization on his profile.

Both of his fellowships were taken in the UK and both sit in the same region of the body as the busiest part of his list. He completed a fellowship in shoulder, knee and elbow arthroscopy and sports medicine in 2011, and the Calvert Fellowship in London, a shoulder fellowship taken under Dr. Andrew Wallace for the shoulder and Dr. Andy Williams for the knee. Those two placements explain why arthroscopic and sports procedures outnumber replacement procedures on a list from a surgeon of his seniority.

Alongside Yashoda Hospital in Secunderabad he has been at Continental Hospitals in Hyderabad.
