Dr. Khincha HPC

I had acute knee pain since few months. On undergoing various tests I was advised to undergo total knee replacement surgery for both legs. I was not prepared to undergo such a surgery as this was the first time I came across such a situation and I was not mentally prepared also to face the situation. I was totally under depression.

Dr Khincha was recommended to me by our family cardiologist Dr Srihari Das at Sagar Hospital Bangalore when I suffered excruciating left knee pain on a trip in USA last June,2017. Dr Khincha spoke to me over15 minutes on long distance call and assured that if there is no fracture, this could be possibly due a a tissue tear or arithiritis and this would not be life threatening etc. Those fifteen minutes so precious and assured me and I stabilised and on my return I went to his clinic and met the junior doctors and also Dr Khincha. He made thorough examination of both the knees etc also studied the MRI and X Ray reports. He advised physio therapy and to lose some more weight and my problem , he said, is common for people over 60 and not to worry but continue to go about regular work . Need to see him after 90 days. He was gracious, thorough and did not say a single sentence that would suggest hifonda treatment etc. His meticulous attention to details was indeed very remarkable. Very very affordable cost for the consultation and prompt service. In the USA inspite of having first class expensive insurance, the cost of medicare is beyond the scope of people like us esp visitors. prohibitive and 100 or more times expensive. simply not affordable. We could not even get to see a specialist when I was in severe distress. Emergency care would have cost me upwards of Rs 4 lacs. just MRI, X Rays, Consultation etc. Here I could see Dr Khincha, get the best possible affordable guidance. Good to be back home !!. A close friend of mine, an elderly lady over 85 years had both the knee joints replaced and her quality of life improved, thanks to Dr Khincha's expert care and surgical intervention. His approach to bring affordable medical care for ortho issues for our folks is commedable.

I had a fall from my scooter in mid May 2015. I had consulted 3 Orthopedic surgeons who suggested ACL reconstruction, before I consulted Dr.Khincha. I had not finalized which Doctor will do the surgery.

I had visited him when i had ACL and LCL breakage. He was ultra casual and highly indifferent. He told to continue with normal activities. On visiting other doctors , I realised - if I had followed his casual approach , I would have lost my knee for life.
